Sobki proves that a CMS can combine rich functionality with digital efficiency. Discover how this solution achieves an Eco Index B through an optimized architecture.
Sobki, the technical foundation of the responsible web
Eco-design is at the heart of the Sobki promise. While CMSs are sometimes criticized for their complexity, Sobki stands out with its inherently lightweight codebase. The code capitalization strategy has been maximized to reduce the environmental footprint right from the backend. As a result, the solution offers a technical structure capable of achieving an Eco Index B. This performance relies on a systematic elimination of unnecessary technical elements, guaranteeing fast display and minimal server resource consumption, while still providing the modern back office expected by contributors. This rich and flexible contribution can be supported by the EcoIndex module to guide you towards your targeted sustainability goals (coming soon to Sobki as a native integration).
A closer look at the EcoIndex module: managing your impact in real time
EcoIndex is a community module (co-created by Céline Déis Nuel, a Smile consultant certified in eco-design). The tool was designed to integrate seamlessly into Drupal's contribution processes. To this end, when editing content, the module displays the page's EcoIndex score (between 0 and 100) and the corresponding rating (between G and A) on the preview page. Contributors are thus informed of the impact of their publications. The module uses the open-source library and algorithm developed by Green IT (creator and maintainer of the EcoIndex service, www.ecoindex.fr/ ).

Global optimization: a holistic approach to Green IT
While Sobki provides an exemplary technical foundation, achieving an excellent EcoIndex score depends on a holistic approach. A successful project relies on synergy between the tool, user-friendly user journeys (UX), clean web design (UI), and well-structured input (with tools like the EcoIndex module or downloadable tutorials ). By reducing the number of page elements, eliminating unnecessary queries, and optimizing media, Sobki becomes the catalyst for a Green IT strategy. We support our clients in this comprehensive optimization: from selecting essential features to refining the design, ensuring the final platform is as environmentally friendly as it is user-friendly.
