Datadrevet håndtering av teknisk gjeld for bærekraftig programvareutvikling

Offentlig prosjektsammendrag

As software's role grows in society, the pressure for rapid, high-quality development fosters Technical Debt (TD), which can accumulate into disruptive “snowballs.” TD leads to significant risks for users and businesses alike, causing productivity losses averaging 40% (up to 90% in some projects) and costing $5.82 trillion globally. Existing methods for managing TD are limited and fragmented, especially given modern challenges like DevOps and microservices. Our project aims to address TD proactively by designing tools that allow DevOps teams to measure, prevent, and manage TD. Using a design science approach, we will gather industry requirements to create and refine innovative solutions with our partners. Companies that adopt these tools will gain a competitive edge and contribute to more sustainable software development practices.
