Sustainability & Innovation in Modern Cloud: In this episode of Serverless Craic, Dave, Mark, and Michael dive into Chapter 18 of The Value Flywheel Effect — Sustainability and Space for Innovation.
We explore why sustainable architectures, well-designed domains, situational awareness, and the innovate–leverage–commoditise cycle are essential for modern cloud leaders navigating long-term value.
From Wardley Mapping to domain-driven design, serverless sustainability to AI-driven development shifts, this chapter brings together multiple strands of modern engineering strategy.
If you’re leading engineering teams, shaping cloud strategy, or building adaptive systems, this one’s packed with value.
