Introduction to Scrum


  Scrum is an agile framework that allows for efficient project management, especially in the field of software development. Its origin is based on the search for a methodology that allows for flexible adaptation to changes and promotes constant collaboration among team members.


Origin and Philosophy of Scrum

  Scrum originated from agile practices, born from the need to improve traditional development processes. It is based on fundamental principles that promote continuous improvement, transparency, and flexibility in teamwork.


Principles and Values of the Agile Manifesto

  Scrum is governed by the values and principles established in the Agile Manifesto, which include:


  • Individuals and interactions over processes and tools.
  • Working software over comprehensive documentation.
  • Customer collaboration over contract negotiation.
  • Responding to change over following a plan.

Differences Between Traditional Methodologies and Scrum

  Unlike traditional methodologies (like the waterfall approach), Scrum is more flexible, iterative, and focused on the continuous delivery of value. Scrum teams work in short cycles called Sprints, with the goal of consistently delivering functional increments of the product.
