A big scary or fancy world, however it is our responsibility to deal with, and know what, it turns out this part often rimes with reducing costs.

Several presentations about sustainability and how we can architect for a greener future, maybe it will become an entire track next year.
What we can sum up is that we have the power to act at our own level. Choose services that auto-scale, prefer ARM instances, select partners who measure and try to improve their Carbon emissions. In many cases, Serverless or Compute@Edge can be a very good choice for applications that can take huge load spikes as much as a few requests (quickly scalable and extremely elastic). When possible, try to run jobs during the night, when load spikes are over.

One of the most resonant themes was the importance of treating the platform as a product—a perspective shift that has significantly influenced our approach. By emphasising the need for a smoother experience that balances consistency, performance, security, and development speed, the speakers reinforced the notion that our platform isn't just a set of tools; it's a crucial enabler for our developers' success.
