Project Goal

---

This project aims to identify and implement metrics to understand the carbon footprint of the current CERN services hosted on Kubernetes. These metrics will inform the deployment of workloads in function of the Scope 3 emissions across on-premises and public clouds as a path to achieve low/zero-carbon workload deployment. Ultimately, these innovative results will have direct impact in the IT Department cloud operating model, where carbon awareness will be a costing factor being considered in the FinOps activity managing public cloud costs and optimizing cloud spending within CERN.

In partnership with: Oracle

This project started in January 2025
