The age of Scrum is over | Medium

An argument that Scrum has passed its usefulness. I’m not sure I agree, but I do think that is is appropriate to think of any methodology and it’s solutions in the context of it’s time. There will clearly be a point where Scrum has outlived its utility. Please note that I, and the author, clearly delineate Scrum as different than Agile. Agile is a class of things, Scrum is a specific instance in it.

The particular point that I think scrum misses on over time is engagement outside of the typical developer stack, such as infrastructure as code and service team operation. Also, Scrum lacks a way to think about broader stakeholders and dependencies. The answers Scrum provides for both of these areas are immature and light. Most people end up having to roll-their-own process for these things.
