Scrum is an agile framework for managing product development. It defines three roles - Scrum Master, Product Owner, and Development Team - and three artifacts - Product Backlog, Sprint Backlog, and Product Increment. It also includes five ceremonies - Product Backlog Refinement, Sprint Planning, Daily Scrum, Sprint Review, and Sprint Retrospective. Scrum was first defined in 1986 and evolved through the 1990s, with Ken Schwaber and Jeff Sutherland formalizing the method in 2001 in their book Agile Software Development with Scrum.

6. Scrum-History
• 1986: Scrum was first defined as "a flexible, holistic product
development strategy where a development team works as a
unit to reach a common goal" as opposed to a "traditional,
sequential approach" by Hirotaka Takeuchi and Ikujiro Nonaka
in the "New New Product Development Game"
• Early 1990’s: Ken Schwaber used what would become Scrum at
his company, Advanced Development Methods, and Jeff Sutherland,
with John Scumniotales and Jeff McKenna, developed a similar
approach at Easel Corporation, and were the first to refer to it using
the single word Scrum
• 2001: Ken Schwaber worked with Mike Beedle to describe the
method in the book Agile Software Development with Scrum
