Scrum to Scrumban Migration
This document describes one team's transition from Scrum to Kanban or "Scrumban". It outlines their typical Scrum process, including daily standups and weekly planning and retrospectives. It then discusses how they experimented with different work in progress limits on their Kanban board and the problems they encountered, such as bottlenecks. Finally, it notes how their process evolved more naturally over time with continuous improvement and that they retained stakeholder demos and retrospectives as needed rather than having fixed weekly meetings.
