Title

Follow sustainability driven devops frameworks like susdevops

Description

Rather than traditional DevOps practices that treat sustainability as just another quality metric, use a sustainability-driven framework that treats it as a first class concern throughout the entire delivery process, from planning to deployment and maintenance. One such framework is SusDevOps, which extends the traditional DevOps model by introducing a dedicated sustainability phase. This phase includes key activities such as aligning sustainability goals, selecting appropriate KPIs, and prioritizing those goals to guide decisions across the software lifecycle.
