Abstract — Many new software development approaches were introduced to fit the new cultures of the software development companies. Most software companies nowadays aim to produce valuable software in short time period with minimal costs. Software development is expanding and is becoming more complex. Customer requirements are frequently changing and making it even more difficult. Traditional SDLC are not able to meet the requirements of the market. Scrum Methodology were thus introduced to meet the new requirements of the software development companies. This paper presents a review of Scrum Methodology, describes about it and difference between Traditional SDLC (Waterfall) and SCRUM. We cannot change anything based upon customer requirements, since it follows sequential order. This leads to face these problems- Customer will not get satisfaction, requirements will be in pending, no profit, waste of time.
