ECO:DIGIT is a research and development project with the participation of adesso, which is funded by the Federal Ministry of Economics and Technology. The aim is to develop and standardise a uniform methodology for the automated life cycle assessment of distributed software systems and to implement an accessible and productive software system. I explain what this looks like in detail in my blog post.

Green coding on its own is not enough to really make software sustainable, since the impact of decisions made at the source code level is limited. That is why we at adesso have developed sustainable software architecture guidelines as a way to anchor sustainability at the structural and conceptual level.

Low-/no-code is a development trend that is expected to grow at a double-digit number in the coming years. In contrast to traditional software development, it aims to accelerate product cycles, achieve greater flexibility and reduce development resources, thereby lowering the development costs.

Software is everywhere. Embedded devices contain a lot of software. Unfortunately, what happens a lot: Once it’s live, you’ll discover bugs. Having a FOTA-first mindset for your next device is a key point.

The long-awaited draft guidance for Computer Software Assurance for Production and Quality System Software was published last September. Being a draft state, it’s open to comments and discussion. The non-binding final guidance will reflect FDA’s current thinking of the topic. But what can we learn from this draft guidance already?

A growing awareness of sustainability in the IT sector is driving various organisations’ endeavours to establish a standard for digital sustainability. Experts expect this to happen in the next one to two years. In my blog post, I will show you which sustainability criteria are up for discussion and where the journey could lead.

Due to increasing reporting obligations, many managers are now realising for the first time how much of an impact IT really has on their company’s carbon footprint. This is driven by much more than the amount of electricity they consume. In this blog post, I’ll be explaining where and how emissions from digital products and services can be lowered.

In IT, IT service management (ITSM) is mainly concerned with optimising the quality of IT services. Practice has shown that optimising security management is often more effective at improving information security in the longer term than investing in security technology is. As the focus on ITSM has increased in the IT environment, I’m going to use this blog post to explain how performance measurement and security costs are related in this context.

The security of IT services is always changing Continuously developing an information security management system (ISMS) based on existing standards and tailored adjustments can lead to the information being used securely in the long term. That’s why in this blog post, I explain what’s behind each of the standards in the ISO 2700x series and put them to the test.
