In difficult times, researchers often react promptly and adapt to a new situation, still focusing on the core values. In the upheavals of technology, researchers in Digital Humanities have also created innovative solutions. However, significant issues are associated with sustainable ingredients. First, software often emerges and disappears, leaving valuable data in the wild or causing costs in maintaining technological competences in the organization. Second, storing databases that have reached the end-of-life stage remains an unresolved issue. Third, knowledge and data can be closed inside a database and are often inaccessible to all. Finally, Digital Humanities must play a crucial role as a supporter of a sustainable world by rethinking its approaches. This paper uses ENCODE (an Erasmus+ funded project to bridge the gap between training and digital competences in the teaching/learning domain of ancient writing cultures) as a case study to examine some of the aforementioned issues.
