Getting Agile!

I was reading a lot of Scrum and Agile frameworks stuff over the net and checked out a few online tutorials too. Just felt a need to know it because everyone seems to be talking about it lately! Found some really good introductions on the subject.

Basically, Scrum is derived from the way in which rugby players huddle together to get at the ball when they playoff. On similar lines, Scrum is a lean process, high energy, iterative framework for Agile project development. It cuts a lot of flab in an otherwise traditional SDLC like the waterfall model where all the requirements have to be elicited right from the beginning. Though, there is another model, the iterative variety (I forget the name!), but I guess it still does not have as lean a structure.

Will try to enroll for a Scrum master course sometime to understand this better!
