Reducing carbon emissions in a core system
UBM and Microsoft shift computational tasks in CO2-reduced times
This whitepaper discusses the first enterprise-scale implementation of carbon-aware computing, a collaboration between UBS and Microsoft under the Green Software Foundation (GSF) umbrella. Using the GSF Software Carbon Intensity (SCI) specification and carbon-aware-sdk tooling, the partners implemented a time-shifting strategy for UBS's risk platform, running workloads during periods of lower carbon intensity in the grid. This approach is projected to prevent multiple metric tons of CO2eq from entering the atmosphere annually.

Foundational basic Patterns
Assign a responsible individual for handling each case type
Determine whether activities are related to the same type of case and, if necessary, distinguish new business processes
Elevate physical constraints by applying new technology
Minimize numerical involvement
Too many cooks spoil the broth
Consider whether activities may be executed in parallel
Consider the division of a general activity into two or more alternative activities
Offer a green alternative with the same outcome, utilizing different steps, resources, or partners, while retaining the previous existing process
