Is SDLC a scrum?

No, SDLC (Software Development Life Cycle) is not the same as Scrum.

Here’s why SDLC is not a scrum:

1. SDLC: SDLC is a broad term that encompasses the entire process of planning, creating, testing, and deploying software applications. It includes various phases such as requirements gathering, design, development, testing, deployment, and maintenance. SDLC provides a structured framework for managing the entire software development process from start to finish.
2. Scrum: Scrum, on the other hand, is a specific Agile framework used for managing software development projects. It focuses on iterative development, with work divided into short time frames called sprints. Scrum emphasizes collaboration, adaptability, and continuous improvement, with roles like Scrum Master, Product Owner, and Development Team.

While Scrum is a methodology that can be used within the broader context of SDLC, they are not the same thing. SDLC is the overall process framework, while Scrum is a specific methodology for managing individual projects within that framework.
