Are there any items that can help achieve the SDGs goals by going cloud-based?
Of course.
Cloud computing makes it possible to achieve the following goals set out in the SDGs.
Cloud computing and the connection to achieving the SDGs
| Improvements made possible by cloud computing | SDGs goals expected to be achieved |
|---|---|
Reduction of carbon emissions (1)Energy can be used more efficiently than on-premise | 7. Affordable and clean energy for all 13. Take concrete measures against climate change |
Reduction of carbon emissions (2)Using virtualised servers reduces the use of physical servers and reduces power consumption | |
Reduced workload for operatorsFree yourself from the burden of a wide range of operational tasks, such as server replacement, security measures, and service monitoring. | 8. Decent work and economic growth |

The above are just a few of the SDGs that can be considered for achieving the goals.
At first glance, it is difficult to understand how the cloud and the SDGs are connected, but there are many benefits to simply migrating your current operations to the cloud, and it will help protect the global environment even without being aware of the SDGs.
