This is a slightly broader definition of “front-end” that we normally hear from, say, web app developers. Very often, a transaction traverses all the architectural layers and is partially processed by components that live in both the front-end and back-end worlds.

So, before discussing their differences, let us take a look at the definitions. Scrum vs. Kanban: The Definitions. Scrum is founded on empiricism and lean thinking. Lean thinking reduces waste and focuses on the essentials. The vital aspect of the process must be transparent to people who are involved in the outcome.

Now, you might be thinking what exactly a dance has to do with cadence in Agile? Let’s start first with the definition of cadence. Cadence – Definition and Basics. One can define cadence in Agile as follows: Cadence is a regular, predictable pattern of development work in Agile.

But, for teams that chafe under the strictures of the Scrum process, Kanban can be a freeing alternative. Throughout the assembly line, “workers at each step in the process are not allowed to do work unless they are signaled with a kanban from a downstream step.”. That upper limit then becomes a formalized piece of the Kanban process.

Frequently, especially in a Scrum environment, it can be difficult to match the cadence of doing both. That is the fundamental definition of Kanban. It is not a replacement for Scrum, rather it is a way to improve almost any process you may be using. In the case of Scrum, many folks call the resulting mix Scrumban.

What do you do with planning cadences? Trying to keep the company as agile as it can possibly be so like, we try super hard to organize in ways very similar to how we ask our customers to organize and manage their processes, empower the people and you know, distribute decision making and try not to be super commanding control.

The idea of theory of constraints is also important, where we optimize for the flow of value, limit work in process, and prioritize getting things finished before starting new ones. The roles, the ceremonies, the artifacts, the cadences, all those different things that we model as implementation details. I think SAFE is fine.

The Scrum Team may refine these items during this process, which increases understanding and confidence. However, the more the Developers know about their past performance, their upcoming capacity, and their Definition of Done, the more confident they will be in their Sprint forecasts. How will the chosen work get done?

And they’re counting on the fact that all of the planning processes, all the project management, or all the Agile or all whatever, is going to help them make promises, okay? Why is acceptance criteria or definition of done or deployability or even so far as to extend it out to like we actually have deployed it with customer?

And so that’s kinda what we’re talking about, but one of the big challenges is when you’re dealing with agile at that level of scale like how do you begin the process of transformation? This is how you get to a definition of done? A validated definition of done. Like how do you start it?

Without a regular cadence of delivery of working software any belief that you will get a usable increment is misguided at best. Much like the lean movement in manufacturing, companies that embraced it wholeheartedly were the ones that ultimately see the competitive edge that it provides. Release planning and predictable delivery.

We tend to make strategic decisions and project decisions that are not informed by the amount of technical debt or technical discovery that’s involved, until very late in the decision-making process. As that epic moves over to solution definition, we begin to decompose it down into detailed features.

The combination of high WIP (work in process), multiple and uncoordinated project assignments per individual, lack of coordination of scarce resources, and inattention to cross-team dependencies during planning led to unpredictability in software delivery. The first step has to be to bring the delivery process under control and measurement.
