Does a computer really need to be replaced after two years, or can modern software help to use resources more efficiently?
At DataSolid, we work daily on solutions that make design and product development more efficient - and therefore more sustainable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n\n\n\nRethinking hardware service life<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nMost of the environmental impact is caused during the manufacture of appliances, not during operation.
When companies purchase new hardware every two years, this causes considerable energy consumption and CO\u2082 emissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Efficiency through software instead of replacement<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThe solution often lies not in the device, but in the way it works.
Intelligent CAD and PLM systems make better use of resources, optimize computing processes and manage data efficiently - without any new hardware.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cloud and networking - an opportunity for sustainability<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThe same applies to the cloud: not every provider is equally sustainable.
DataSolid relies on solutions that can be used flexibly - locally, hybrid or in the cloud.
This allows companies to retain control over their resources and make conscious decisions about how energy and data flows are managed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Digitalization as a contribution to sustainability<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nDigital design processes reduce material waste, enable virtual testing and avoid physical prototypes - a clear benefit for the environment and efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
