Original Abstract Submitted
One embodiment provides a method including continuously monitoring, by a computing device, carbon emissions for establishing software application priority for autoscaling. The carbon emissions are utilized as an observability metric while leveraging business criticality and burst capacity to define the software application execution scenario. A first sustainability threshold for the software application and a second sustainability threshold for each of multiple business units are identified for leveraging a carbon footprint based on the business criticality and strategic importance for multiple software applications including the software application in an enterprise application portfolio. The software application execution is autoscaled based on the first sustainability threshold and the second sustainability threshold.
