They discuss practical ways to cut costs and carbon emissions, avoid telemetry bloat, and build greener observability pipelines from the start. Treating observability as an architectural decision is key to creating more efficient and sustainable software systems.\nLearn more about our people:\nKate Goldenring: LinkedIn | Website\nDiana Todea: LinkedIn | Website\n\nFind out more about the GSF:\nThe Green Software Foundation Website \nSign up to the Green Software Foundation Newsletter\n\nResources:\nThe Green Side of Observability - Diana Todea | DevOps.com [01:01]\nRetroactive Sampling with OpenTelemetry | KubeCon Amsterdam 2026 [10:09]\nObservability Is a Mesh, Not a Braid - Diana Todea | Medium [24:54]\nGrafana Mimir [29:47]\nVictoriaMetrics [30:03]\nSCI for Open Telemetry | GSF [33:44]\nSoftware Carbon Intensity (SCI) | GSF [34:00]\nGreen Observability: What Needs to Shuffle in Open Source? - Diana Todea | SCALE [34:41]\n\nEvents:\nSustainable Tech in the Age of AI 29 June 18:00 - Hamburg, Germany [40:59]\nFREE UKSG webinar: Minimising the environmental harm of AI through principle thinking 30 June 13:00 BST - UK, Virtual [41:15]\nReducing Cost and Carbon 2 July 18:00 Frankfurt, Germany [41:39]\n\nIf you enjoyed this episode then please either:\nFollow, rate, and review on Apple Podcasts\nFollow and rate on Spotify\nWatch our videos on The Green Software Foundation YouTube Channel!\nConnect with us on Twitter, Github and LinkedIn!\n Hosted on Acast.
