December 2, 2022 Building a low carbon cloud transcoding platform

Video content is everywhere and has been one of the main source of energy consumption of our internet usage. Streaming is still the number one use of the total internet bandwidth.

I cannot fight against this kind of trend.

I know that telling to stop watching Netflix is a waste of time.

As an engineer, I look for ways to reduce impacts from a problem that’s already there.

Transcoding thousands of files is a hassle. It is way harder by several orders of magnitude that transcoding 3 files once a week.

We use Qarnot cloud computing infrastructure to reach a PUE of 1.05 with a competitive advantage : They recycle the heat produced by servers to provide hot water for buildings and cities.

We are looking for early adopters to help us shape the service, you can register for an early access here.
