Zusammenfassung
As the ecological impact of human activities becomes an increasing concern, the need for sustainable practices extends to the software industry. This paper presents a structured map of techniques and best practices for enhancing software sustainability, defined as software that minimizes environmental impact and maximizes resource efficiency while considering economic and social factors. The map is aimed at organizations and development teams ready to implement sustainable measures, offering a collection of well-known techniques and best practices. The insights were gathered through a literature review and further enriched by open interviews with four experts from software development, providing both theoretical and practical perspectives. By adopting and implementing these sustainable software development practices, organizations can contribute to the global effort to mitigate the environmental impact of technology and promote responsible resource usage.
