How EasyVirt Is Redefining Sustainable IT Infrastructure

Could sustainable IT hold the answers to rising infrastructure costs and environmental pressure? In this episode, recorded live during the IT Press Tour in Malta, we speak with François Machacek, an IT veteran with nearly thirty years of experience and a strong focus on digital sustainability. Now part of the team at EasyVirt, François is helping organizations measure and reduce the environmental impact of their digital operations.The conversation begins with François’s career journey, from managing enterprise data centers across Europe to becoming a leader in responsible IT. He introduces EasyVirt’s technology, which includes DCscope, DCnetscope, and CO2scope, and explains how these tools provide real-time, high-frequency resource usage measurements across virtualized and hybrid environments. This level of visibility helps organizations make informed decisions that improve efficiency and reduce carbon emissions without compromising performance or security.We examine how the environmental costs of digital technology are growing fast, especially with the expansion of AI workloads and data center demand. François discusses how EasyVirt addresses this challenge by offering software that works inside client environments, avoids reliance on average estimates, and instead delivers precise, continuous monitoring. He outlines the financial and environmental benefits clients are seeing in both the short and long term, including reduced compute waste, time savings in planning, and improved reporting against ESG targets.The episode also highlights how FinOps and GreenOps can work together to guide smarter infrastructure use. François explains how these principles allow IT teams to balance financial planning with environmental goals, resulting in better resource control, improved compliance readiness, and more credible emissions reporting.Looking ahead, François shares what’s next for EasyVirt, including new tools for measuring AI energy use, upcoming multi-impact assessments (carbon, water, materials), and a free new comparison platform called ECLIO. This tool gives IT teams insights into pricing and emissions data across major cloud providers, supporting better planning for cloud migrations.If your infrastructure strategy needs to align with both cost efficiency and sustainability expectations, this episode provides a grounded look at how to get there using accurate data and practical solutions.
