Agile Scrum Methodology – First part

Scrum is a lightweight agile project management framework with broad applicability for managing and controlling iterative and incremental projects of all types.
With “Scrum” methodology, the “Product owner” works closely with the team to identify and prioritize system functionality in form of a “Product Backlog”.

Scrum is a sub-group of agile:
Agile is a set of values and principles that describe a group’s day-to-day interactions and activities. Agile itself is not prescriptive or specific.
The Scrum methodology follows the values and principles of agile, but includes further definitions and specifications, especially regarding certain software development practices.

Organizations that have adopted agile Scrum have experienced:

Higher productivity
Better-quality products

Reduced time to market
Improved stakeholder satisfaction
Better team dynamics
Happier employees

To get started with agile Scrum, it is not uncommon for an individual Scrum team to use simple Scrum tools like a whiteboard, sticky notes, or a spreadsheet to manage the product backlog and the progress of the sprint backlog items in each sprint.
