Practical cost control and carbon footprint in Azure

Title:

How we slashed hosting costs & carbon emissions by 85% for 1 of the UK's biggest charities

Summary:

We helped one of the UK’s largest charities, Prostate Cancer UK, rebuild their website to align with their sustainability, performance, & cost-efficiency goals.

By moving to SCALE-TO-ZERO Container Apps (which turn off when not in use) we delivered an average of 85% reduction in carbon emissions & hosting costs.

The app is now cheaper, greener & future-ready, all without sacrificing developer experience.

This is a practical, behind-the-scenes look at the technical decisions & real-world results that came from applying a modern, sustainability driven approach to a high-profile non-profit site.
