This conference talk explores the critical gap in concrete data on Kubernetes energy consumption within sustainable cloud computing. Follow Leonard Pahlke and Antonio Di Turi as they present a comprehensive case study measuring real energy metrics of a microservice running on k3s clusters across different Platform Engineering stages. Discover the energy impact during Day 0 (manual setup with k3s, Cilium, microservice deployment), Day 1 (ArgoCD and Falco implementation), and Day 2 (observability integration with Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, and Kepler). Learn how bare metal environments provide clean, measurable energy data from idle to fully operational states. The presenters compare Kepler's energy consumption estimates for Kubernetes components against actual plug measurements and share Day 3 experiments involving programming language changes, OS images, VPA, and KEDA. Gain practical insights from TAG Environmental Sustainability Leads designed to inspire innovation toward a more sustainable cloud-native ecosystem.
