Modern architects have mastered scalability, resilience, and security—but are we designing systems that are sustainable?

Sustainability in architecture goes beyond reducing carbon emissions. It includes designing solutions that consume fewer resources, minimize technical debt, optimize cloud utilization, reduce unnecessary automation, and remain maintainable for years.

In this session, we'll explore sustainable architecture principles from a general software engineering perspective and then see how they apply to Salesforce. We'll discuss practical strategies such as choosing the right automation patterns, minimizing data redundancy, optimizing integrations, designing efficient APIs, governing AI usage, and building solutions that are environmentally responsible while reducing operational costs.
