We also have a few last minute additions we’ve managed to sneak in before the end of the year:
We aim to make Cloud Carbon Footprint scalable to larger organizations and amounts of data. To aid in this, we have updated some of our caching behavior. (release 2021-12-17)
In order to make our API more flexible and consumable, we’ve updated it to now take a parameter to specify the groupBy period. (release 2021-12-17)
Once again, thank you all for being part of our community and helping us make cloud carbon measurement more straightforward, accessible, and common practice.
A final ask as we regroup and get ready for the coming year: Please help us know how we can best help you by filling out our survey and listing yourself in our Adopters file.
We’ll see you in 2022!
