Day 04 / 100 · Agile foundations · Scrum vs Kanban vs hybrid

Fit the method to the work.

No framework is best in general. Each suits a different way that work arrives. Start there, not with a favourite.

Scrum

Fixed Sprints

Best for: product work toward planned goals.

Sprints, a sprint goal, clear roles and regular events.

Kanban

Continuous Flow

Best for: support, ops and unpredictable arrivals.

Visual flow, limits on work in progress, pull when ready.

Hybrid

Both, On Purpose

Best for: teams that build and support.

Sprints for planned work, a flow lane for interrupts.

Fit the method to how work arrives.
