We take responsibility for your "Sustainability in the Cloud" by optimising workload resource utilisation. By maximising hardware utilisation and adopting more efficient instance types, we reduce the total energy required to power your workloads. We manage your cloud data lifecycle to minimise unnecessary storage and decrease your overall environmental impact.

While cloud providers focus on the sustainability of the cloud (renewable power and efficient buildings), Ken's Virtual Workspace manages sustainability in the cloud for you. We prioritise energy reduction and efficiency across all components of your workload. This starts with selecting the most efficient Regions—those close to renewable energy projects or with lower published carbon intensity.
The most sustainable resource is the one you don't use. We right-size your workloads and implement efficient designs to ensure high hardware utilisation. We eliminate "Zombie" or idle resources that consume energy without providing value. By adopting managed services, we shift the responsibility for high-utilization hardware to the provider, distributing the environmental impact across a broad customer base.
We manage your data lifecycle to reduce the provisioned storage required. By implementing data classification policies, we move infrequently accessed data to more energy-efficient storage tiers or delete it when it is no longer required. For The Shule Project, we focus on extending the physical device lifecycle. By using Chrome Enterprise, we provide a lighter, more efficient operating system that reduces the frequency of hardware replacements, thereby lowering the total environmental impact of your educational technology.
