Kanban and Scrum - making the most of both

Book cover for Kanban and Scrum - making the most of both

Scrum and Kanban are two flavours of Agile software development - two deceptively simple but surprisingly powerful approaches to software development. So how do they relate to each other?

Part I illustrates the similarities and differences between Kanban and Scrum, comparing for understanding, not for judgement. There is no such thing as a good or bad tool – just good or bad decisions about when and how to use which tool.

Part II is a case study illustrating how a Scrum-based development organization implemented Kanban in their operations and support teams
