Embracing Agile methodology during DevOps Developer Internship Program

Waterfall methodology: For several decades the development teams have used waterfall process [4] for implementing software. But in the recent years several software companies, technical articles and research papers have acknowledged the benefits of agile methodologies over waterfall and have attempted to adopt agile processes. Software industry is constantly trying to keep up with competition to deliver products to market in a short duration, while also maintaining quality and meeting customer expectations and adopting new technologies at the same time. Vendors facilitating the switch to agile provide plenty of presentations about advantages of agile but lack definitive steps detailing how an organization can change the deeply rooted processes and overcome resistance to change. The transition needs to occur from within an organization and the DevOps [5] team decided to take the first step towards going agile.
