Review

"It isn't very often that a software process book comes along that truly impresses me, and SDLC 3.0 is one of the few that has. ... other such books include Extreme Programming Explained, Lean Software Development, ..."

Product Description

The world of software development methodology has become a bit of a cottage industry. Philosophical divisions and dogma laced with branding and driven by profit motive are commonplace. Re-invention replaces integration due to a lack of collaboration. A pragmatic perspective however would be to leverage all past experience in context when approaching modern software engineering challenges. For example, issues faced by the Agile community related to agility at scale and technical debt have already been addressed before by other communities.

SDLC 3.0 represents the rationalization of modern software engineering methods into a Complex Adaptive System of practices. It leverages Control Systems Engineering theory to explain Agile beyond a tacit and anecdotal basis such that the pace of modern practice adoption can accelerate. And because "more for less" is now as important as "being agile", it articulates blueprints of the Lean IT Enterprise.
