Turning continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines into emissions‑controlled workloads is a strategy businesses adopt to reduce the carbon footprint of their pipelines. This article examines how a Carbon-Aware DevOps strategy can help optimize CI/CD pipelines for sustainability by reducing their carbon footprint while also decreasing costs and meeting the increasing demand for innovative, eco-friendly solutions. Understanding the Problem Today’s organizations take advantage of CI/CD pipelines to streamline and accelerate their software delivery. However, these CI/CD pipelines can become a hindrance to sustainability because of the resources required to create, build, test and ultimately deploy software into production. Typically, CI/CD pipelines run tens of thousands of automated builds, tests and deployments daily, thereby consuming significant compute and energy resources. If you don’t take the steps necessary to reduce the emissions generated by these ...
