Abstract
The Azure cloud platform is evolving to reduce carbon emissions by an order of magnitude. This effort is divided across many initiatives, including research on hardware/software systems. This talk will discuss the projects being pursued by systems researchers at Azure, and their expected carbon impacts. I will also talk briefly about the changes to cloud platforms expected in the near future (eg. for AI), and motivate research challenges in this space.
Bio: Fiodar Kazhamiaka is a Researcher at Microsoft Azure. He works on hardware, software infrastructure, and resource management to decrease the carbon emissions and improve the power efficiency of datacenters.
