Software industry data shows that Scaling software development has many challenges because complexity tends to increase, we start facing communication overhead, many dependencies to manage, governance become harder to ensure, and others.
An effective strategy to scale development includes several capabilities, acting together in an orchestrated way to reduce friction caused by these challenges.
