Symplicity Sustainability & Environmental

Processing

Symplicity is a software company that provides enterprise SaaS applications to higher education, government, and corporate clients.  The majority of Symplicity’s carbon footprint comes from servers that support our applications, so we pick cloud service providers that have made commitments to become carbon neutral in the near future.  Currently, Symplicity utilizes both AWS and Microsoft Azure cloud providers.

Please see https://sustainability.aboutamazon.com/environment/the-cloud for more information on the AWS sustainability program. AWS is committed to 100% renewable energy by 2025.
