Green Software - Development of resource-efficient applications (GREEN)
iSAQB CPSA Advanced Level Book nowDesigning sustainable software architectures
In this practical training, you will learn how to actively contribute to sustainability with well-thought-out software architecture. From analyzing regulatory frameworks to assessing the carbon footprint – you will acquire in-depth knowledge of designing energy-efficient architectures, algorithms, and development processes.
The focus is on concrete measures to reduce emissions, sustainable cloud strategies, and the integration of sustainability aspects into architectural decisions and the entire software lifecycle.
Your advantages at a glance
► Actively contribute to reducing your software’s CO₂ footprint
► Make informed decisions about sustainable architecture and cloud
► Securely meet regulatory requirements
► Resource-saving processes in everyday development implement
► Position IT as an innovation driver for climate goals
Participation requirements
► Experience in the design and development of small to medium-sized software systems
► Knowledge of the software lifecycle and in dealing with quality requirements
► Practical programming experience and basic knowledge of monitoring are an advantage
Technical Requirements
The exercises will be conducted using cloud-based tools (e.g., Miro, Draw.io, Jupyter, HuggingFace). All you need is a stable internet connection – no local installations required.
