What is Agile Really?
Last week I discussed what agile really means in information systems development (ISD) with my good friend, Christian Aaen from Agilic. A good place to start is the ‘Agile Manifesto’.
The term agility was introduced in 2001 when a group of people involved in finding, testing and defining new methods got together at a skiing resort in North America. They came up with four principles:
1)Individuals and interactions over processes and tools
2)Working software over comprehensive documentation
3)Customer collaboration over contract negotiation
4)Responding to change over following a plan
What this means in regards to enterprise architecture is a good question – a question that I will elaborate further upon during the next couple of months when I write up my PhD-proposal.
