In physics, there’s a difference between “Speed” and “Velocity” While the first is a scalar quantity (the quantity itself plus the unit of measurement), the second is a vectorial quantity (quantity, unit of measurement plus direction). A metric called Velocity is used to measure the deliveries’ effort.

The post Under-commitment leads to higher sprint velocity first appeared on Agile Alliance. A practice of under-commitment creates a motivated team that has the time and mental space to stretch within the sprint and achieve higher levels of task completion.

Velocity is a measurement of how many story points a software development team can finish within a sprint (usually one or two weeks). When a team measures this output over a period of time, generally they have a consistent amount of story points they can deliver in a sprint and their velocity is known.

Time and time again teams struggle with Velocity as a genuinely helpful metric. Escape Velocity considers better alternatives to Velocity as a metric.
Speaker: Daniel "spoons" Spoonhower, CTO and Co-Founder at Lightstep
Together these have enabled individual service teams to become more independent and, as a result, have boosted developer velocity. However, this increased velocity often comes at the cost of overall application performance or reliability.

The resulting loss of development velocity and/or code quality can be prevented without rewriting everything from scratch, nor pausing the development of new features. The JavaScript language and its ever-changing ecosystem of packages and practices can make codebases quickly become hard to maintain.

Securing applications in these times of high-velocity digital transformation is an uphill battle. The challenges of developing secure applications within a DevOps pipeline continue to exist, and new issues arise when infrastructure and code are deployed automatically.

Particularly well-suited for microservice-oriented architectures and agile workflows, containers help organizations improve developer efficiency, feature velocity, and optimization of resources. Containers power many of the applications we use every day.

Ultimately, organizations will have to improve the velocity of innovation by creating repeatable processes that support ideation, exploration, and incubation, essential to capturing an idea’s full value.
Speaker: Kim Burgaard, Head of Engineering at Fernish
Don't focus on points and velocity, but on value and outcomes. Developer productivity is an output of many factors, including the people on the team, company culture, processes, and tools. Aligning smart people on goals and empowering them to take ownership is a productivity superpower.
Speaker: speakers from Verizon, Snowflake, Affinity Federal Credit Union, EverQuote, and AtScale
Each panelist will present and discuss actionable strategies for making data as consumable as possible by everyone in the organization and for increasing data velocity for faster insights using a semantic layer. In this webinar you will learn about: Making data accessible to everyone in your organization with their favorite tools.
Speaker: Roy Osherove, Technology and Leadership Consultant
As a senior software leader, you spend much of your time trying to optimize your team's performance – from increasing delivery rate and velocity to reducing defect rates and waste. To do this, you've learned a wide variety of techniques and methodologies - SCRUM, Kanban, TDD, DevOps, self-organized teams, and much more.
Speaker: Dave West, CEO of Scrum.org
And why, when CTOs asked about progress, do people talk about velocity and Story Points? The idea of incremental delivery in pursuit of a mission for customers is fundamental to Scrum and the Agile Manifesto that CTOs work with every day. So why is it so hard to decide on a Sprint Goal?
