Abstract

The study examines the innovative potential of Russian software systems as a system-forming factor determining the quality of life and national security. Digital infrastructure requires energy, computing power, data centers, payment networks, and a sustainable resource base. The development and improvement of domestic software for design and production represent a fulfillment of the state policy for ensuring technological sovereignty, as declared by the President of Russia. The current status and market positions of key domestic products are analyzed in comparison with Western alternatives, considering the possibilities of their adaptation to the requirements of Russian legislation and the specifics of the domestic software market. The mechanisms of the socioeconomic effects of domestic implementation are described, showcasing their influence on accelerating innovation cycles, reducing design costs, creating high-tech jobs, and improving information security. The potential opportunities and priorities of government measures and support for stimulating and developing Russian digital platforms are discussed. At the same time, the problem of establishing digital sovereignty is often reduced to the technical aspects of import substitution for Western software, while the social impact on the population's quality of life remains insufficiently studied. This article describes the relationship between the comprehensive development of domestic industrial software and the preservation of Russia's digital sovereignty, improving the quality of life, and increasing the population's well-being.
