1. Agile Software Web Development-Offshore
Benefits Overview
In today’s fast paced technology driven environment, software & IT industry has seen
tremendous growth and technology advancement in past few years. Companies & Businesses of
different industries across the levels are investing more on software and web applications to get
the whole operation streamlined. To cater these requirements, software and development
companies are implementing those software development methodologies, which are more cost
effective, and provide a collaborative working environment during project development. Agile
software development is one such methodology that is being widely used by offshore software
development companies in order to deliver projects in more effective manner.
Agile software development methodology was introduced in the year 2001 under the Agile
Manifesto. During any project development the business requirements & specifications,
assigned tasks, and priorities could be changed. Considering this, agile methods are considered
very useful and practical in this scenario. It consists of software development methodologies
which are based on iterative and incremental method of development. The whole development is
done with effective collaboration between small cross-functional and self-organized teams and
client. It provides a greater flexibility where whole project could be split into different small
phases or stages with specific time assigned respectively. This helps to complete the whole
project in more efficient manner with given time.
Agile development is driven by certain set of beliefs and principles. According to these beliefs,
communication and interaction at individual level needs to be done in prioritized manner along
with agile development tools and processes. It insists that, the human interaction and
communication plays pivot role during project development. It gives the primary importance to a
working software in comparison to documentation. Though, detailed documentation is required
but, it is much better to present the development process through working software during client
interaction. It is very important to have effective collaboration and communication with client on
frequent basis during each phase of project development. It insists, there should be a proper
mechanism for responding to changes requested during the development process. However,
planning is an essential step but, there might be cases where some changes are requested from
client due to some factors such as market condition. Therefore, effective change management
system plays very crucial part in agile development.
Agile methods does not have long-term planning, instead it focused on breaking the tasks with
small increments. In Iteration process, activities are divided into short time frames from one to
four weeks. Every time frame or iteration consists of a small team that works on all components
of software development cycle named-requirement analysis, design, coding, unit testing and
acceptance testing. Further, it helps in minimizing the risk involved if, there is any changes are

iteration with least bugs.
Generally, teams are small, self-organized and cross-functional with less influence of any
corporate hierarchy. The team size could be of 5 to 9 members. Each team member considered
responsible for tasks assigned in iteration. Most of the time, the communication is face-to-face in
case, the team is in same place. There is close co-operation between developers and business
end. One person is appointed by stakeholder who can interact with development team during the
iteration process. As a measure of success, a working software is considered the best way to
show the development process.
There are various types of agile methods in practice, such as – agile modeling, agile modified
process, essential unified process, dynamic systems development method, extreme programming,
open unified process, feature driven development, scrum and velocity tracking.
Sustainability, effective change management, customer satisfaction by delivering the project with
effective collaboration at both client and development end are few prime objectives of agile
development. Effective resource allocation and optimal resource utilization makes it more cost
effective methods of software development. Because of above mentioned benefits, Offshore
agile software web development has become one of the most preferred options among web
development companies across the globe.
