Environmental sustainability is becoming a top business priority, with a recent Gartner survey indicating that sustainability ranked among CEOs’ top 10 priorities for 2022.
Organizations determined to reduce their environmental impact must focus on the sustainability of their IT initiatives, including their cloud and edge infrastructure.
Most IT organizations are aware of the environmental benefits of cloud service offerings to achieve sustainability objectives, but few include sustainability as criteria when selecting a cloud service provider. However, Gartner predicts that by 2025, the carbon emissions strategies of hyperscale cloud providers will be a top-three criterion in cloud purchase decisions.
