CBAI: Cloud-Based Agile Infrastructure for Enhancing Distributed Agile Development

Distributed agile development comes with a lot of challenges in particular as it has to do with agile teams working together from different geological locations on the same project. Most probably it happens due to a lack of visibility in the complex development and deployment process, poor communication, and unavailability of the development team and corresponding customer in the same place. These factors affect the performance of the team and increase the overall cost of development. To mitigate all these aspects, we proposed a cloud computing-based Infrastructure which is a combination of both agile as well as cloud computing technology named ‘CBAI’. The proposed Infrastructure assists the team members to work efficiently even if they are different geo-locations without burdening the cost. It provides the basic structure for global agile development and is also efficient in reducing the technical liability, and the need for project backlog.
