ADVSUS02-BP01 Break down system components to determine which are business critical and compare the trade-offs
When aligning SLAs with sustainability goals for advertising workloads, break down system components to identify business-critical elements, and evaluate trade-offs to balance SLAs with environmental objectives while minimizing waste.
Implementation guidance
-
Categorize workloads by business impact, customer impact, and latency, monitor performance, and set SLA requirements accordingly to optimize resource allocation.
-
For batch workloads like privacy-enhanced data collaboration, consider scheduling them to run during periods when the carbon footprint is lower, such as time of the day or week when more renewable energy is available or when demand is lower.
-
For time-sensitive and business-critical workloads like real-time bidding, prioritize meeting SLA requirements, even if it means running during peak demand periods with a higher carbon footprint.
