In my previous video, we explored what a backlog is. We learned that a backlog consists of Product Backlog Items, short PBI. In this video, we go one level deeper and look at what exactly a PBI is, how it evolves over time, and how it relates to the product backlog, the sprint backlog, and the product owner.
What is a backlog, and why is backlog management so important in agile software development? In this video, I break down the concept of a backlog, explain the difference between a product backlog and a sprint backlog, and show how tools like Jira support backlog management in practice.
In this video, I explain what Synthesize is and how it works within the SAFe DevOps Health Radar. Synthesize is the fourth and final step of Continuous Exploration, where we combine the outputs of Hypothesize, Collaborate and Research, and Architect into a prioritized backlog with a clear vision and roadmap.
