"Intelligence is the ability to adapt to change." These are words from the great Stephan Hawkins and can justly encapsulate the core meaning of the Agile concept which has revolutionized the way we conceptualize and produce software. The tech industry has gone through sweeping changes that have resulted in expeditious software production. Gone are the days where software teams would spend months and even years to deliver on new features to improve the experience of their customers. Now, changes can be implemented in a matter of weeks, if not days. A major push towards the change has been due to the maturing of cloud services and CI/CD practices.
Serverless is the latest trend in cloud computing, a technological concept that, if understood and implemented properly, is one that can further our movement towards true Agile development. Therefore, the aim of this piece is to revisit the core concept of Agile, go through the developments in the tech industry and highlight the future of Agile with serverless as a practical base.
