Agile and Waterfall Approach does a hybrid methodology exist

Question

Does a hybrid methodology exist? If yes , kindly state examples on how you applied this. If No , kindly explain further to support your reasons.

Answer 1

Hybrid means a blend of delivery approaches. Here are the ways where one could claim to follow a hybrid life cycle: 

• Some variant on Water-Scrum-Fall, Scrum-Fall, or Water-Scrum. 

• A project where distinct work packages lend themselves to either an adaptive or a predictive life cycle and need not be integrated and verified as a coherent whole. An example of this might be the training work packages supporting a technology application. 

 The former could be developed in a traditional manner whereas the latter could be done in an agile manner. This still feels a little like Scrum-Fall, but so be it.
