MY TALKS

Java in the Green Cloud: Eco-Friendly Development with Kubernetes

Software Engineering, Professional Development, Backend, Community / Networking, DevOps, Innovation, Inspirational

Asset 12SLIDES.png

The tech industry is quietly burning 3.7% of global carbon emissions—enough to rival the aviation industry!

Surprised? So are we, and guess what? Our code is part of the problem. While optimizing for speed and scalability, we often forget that wasteful apps consume energy like an all-you-can-eat buffet.

In this session, we’ll show you how to build greener Java applications in Kubernetes without sacrificing performance. Get ready to:

Tame your resource usage with Kubernetes tools like resource limits and autoscaling.
Write smarter Java code that sips energy instead of chugging it.
Spot hidden inefficiencies and optimize for a smaller carbon footprint.

Expect practical tips, fun analogies, and live examples that make sustainable development less “doom and gloom” and more “cool and efficient.” Let’s prove that clean code can also be green code. The planet (and your cloud bill) will thank you!

In the battle against buggy code, error handling is your weapon of choice. This talk will arm you with the knowledge and skills to:

- Identify and handle different types of exceptions.
- Create custom exceptions for specific errors.
- Implement error-prevention strategies.
- Log and report errors effectively.
- Debug and troubleshoot errors with confidence.

In addition, we will also discuss the importance of a mindset shift in error handling. Instead of viewing errors as failures, we encourage you to view them as learning opportunities.

Whether you're a seasoned backend developer or just starting out, this talk will help you write more robust and reliable Java code.
