Water stewardship: evaporative cooling, recycled water, and onsite water treatment Renewable energy to power data centers Removing central UPS reduces energy conversions, optimizations on the racks reduce energy use New data center construction incorporates use of low-carbon concrete AWS Graviton processors use up to 60% less energy for same performance than comparable instances Amazon Sustainability Data Initiative (ASDI) provides free access to satellite data and climate models AWS journey highlights

8. © 2022, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. Sustainability in the cloud is a continuous, focused effort on energy reduction and efficiency across all components of a workload
9. © 2022, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. Identify targets for improvement Evaluate specific improvements Prioritize and plan improvements Test and validate improvements Deploy changes to production Measure results and replicate successes Improvement process Monitor Goals 1 2 3 4 5 6
10. © 2022, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. Resources Unit of work Normalize sustainability KPIs to make them comparable
11. © 2022, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. Best practices from the Sustainability Pillar User behavior Data Software and architecture Hardware Development and deployment process Region selection
12. © 2022, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. Region selection Select AWS Regions near AWS renewable energy projects Select AWS Regions where carbon intensity is low
13. © 2022, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. AWS Regions selection based on market-based method AWS Regions powered by over 95% renewable energy in 2021 US East (Northern Virginia) GovCloud (US-East) US East (Ohio) US West (Oregon) GovCloud (US-West) US West (Northern California) Canada (Central) Europe (Ireland) Europe (Frankfurt) Europe (London) Europe (Milan) Europe (Paris) Europe (Stockholm) Renewable Energy Methodology
14. © 2022, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. User behaviour patterns Scale infrastructure with user load Align service level agreements (SLAs) with sustainability goals Eliminate the creation and maintenance of unused assets Optimize the geographic placement of your workloads for user locations Optimize team member resources for the activities performed
15. © 2022, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. May reduce cost Small increase in response time Reduction in overall impact Architectural recommendation
16. © 2022, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. Software patterns Optimize software and architecture for asynchronous and scheduled jobs Remove or refactor workload components with low or no use Optimize the areas of your code that consume the most time or resources Optimize impact on customer devices and equipment Use software patterns and architectures that best support your data access and storage patterns
17. Energy used per programming language https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/ opensource/sustainability-with- rust/
18. © 2022, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. Tenable infrastructure savings
19. © 2022, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. Hardware patterns Use the minimum amount of hardware to meet your needs Use the instance types that meet your requirements with the least impact Use managed services Optimize your use of GPUs
20. © 2022, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. AWS managed services supporting Graviton2 Amazon DocumentDB Amazon Aurora Amazon RDS Amazon Elasticache Amazon OpenSearch Amazon EMR AWS Lambda AWS Fargate Amazon FSx for Lustre, Open ZFS Amazon MemoryDB Databases Analytics Compute Storage Amazon Neptune AWS Elastic Beanstalk
21. © 2022, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its Affiliates. Data patterns Implement a data classification policy Use technologies that best support your data access and storage patterns Use lifecycle policies to automatically delete unnecessary data Minimize overprovisioning in block storage Remove unneeded or redundant data Use shared file systems or object storage to access common data Minimize data movement across networks Only backup data when it would be more impactful, or impossible, to recreate
