Recently, the software engineering field has undergone major changes due to the adoption of several agile methods. Iterative and incremental development are commonly used to deliver the applications for customers. Despite these advances, agile methods undergoes several challenges, such as the lack of adequate environment to facilitate development activities and ensure rapid marketing growth. To meet this challenge, cloud computing is regarded as a feasible solution because it allows a set of resources, services and tools to be quickly and easily configured at low cost.
The main challenge in this work is to identify the usage of agile software development in cloud computing. Therefore, we hereby propose a Scrum agile methodology adapted to the cloud's PaaS (Platform as a Service) environment. This Scrum methodology based on the SBOK (Scrum Body of Knowledge) guide presents all the practices, roles and phases necessary for the development of applications in PaaS. Before designing the method, we analyzed all the layers of the cloud (SaaS, PaaS, IaaS) and then we selected the Scrum method which is one of the most popular agile methods. All the different aspects of the method are presented in detail in order to facilitate its use by the application development teams.
