The Lean model for software development focuses on eliminating waste, making decisions as late as possible, and delivering results faster. Teams work to find ways to reduce waste at every step. At its core, the model empowers the entire project team in decision-making.
Agile Model
The agile model combines an incremental and iterative approach. The software is released, tested, and improved at each iteration. Surprisingly, the agile model encourages fast failure because it's believed that failing fast and early helps discover minor issues before they turn major.
Scrum Model
The Scrum model is a popular Agile framework that emphasizes close and continuous collaboration. It involves special development cycles known as Sprints.
A Scrum Master manages and improves all processes and helps teams abide by Agile values for maximized productivity. Scrum Masters also ensure that the whole process and progress are transparent to concerned stakeholders.
DevOps
DevOps is basically a hybrid of lean and agile. In this model, both developers and operation teams collaborate to speed up and innovate the software development process. It involves continuous feedback, improvements, and the automation of manual processes.
