Part Three: Incremental ESPM

The models discussed in this part must meet the same criteria as in the Linear approach. In the Linear approach the software product is deployed at the end of the development life cycle. In the Incremental approach market conditions require early release of product. To accommodate that, the incremental approach decomposes the software product into chunks of code—each one having some business value. These chunks are released as they are built. Finally the end product is fully released at the end of the development cycle, just as would be the case for the Linear approach.
