Applying Agile Principles in Developing Content Management Systems.

Developing open-source content management systems is often a collaborative effort by a number of developers and released for free along with its source code for free. The underlying reason for releasing the software for free is that the developers are free to examine, study, and if need arises modify the software.


Open-source CMS development projects often produce applications of exceptional quality and endurance that can be accessed by any number of users. Hence, open-source CMS development processes often contrast conventional software engineering methodologies. Also, it boasts of a highly distributed development methodology. Hence open source CMS development results in a more powerful and more reusable business models.

On the other hand, agile software development in AgileSoftware Development Company companies is founded on a repetitive and in phased manner, where specifications and solutions evolve under a collaborative, self-organizing and multi-disciplinary teams.

It is a theoretical framework that promotes expected associations during the entire development cycle. Agile methodology divides tasks into small phases with barely no planning and abstain from directly involving from long term planning.

Iterations are usually comprised of short duration. Each iteration would encompass a multi-disciplinary team involved in every aspect such as planning, requirement analysis, design, code, testing so on and so forth. An agile team would be generally multi-disciplinary and decentralized.

Each team member in software companies in UAE would assume responsibility for the tasks undertaken that would provide the required functionality an iteration needs. The way in which requirements should be released is taken one by one.

An interesting fact about open source development project are extra continental, across time zones and sometimes even across projects. Anyone who is concerned with application development is extremely positive in its evolution.  Developers can provide ideas on design, code, fixing bugs, documentation, and evolution of an impending release.
