A scrum team has eight developers, but only two are database engineers. During the last few retrospectives, the team identified that most sprint stories are dependent upon database engineers. This has created a bottleneck in completing stories.
What should be proposed to the team?

  • A. Have other team developers attend training to learn database skills
  • B. Monitor the retrospectives of two additional sprints before taking action
  • C. Plan fewer stories for the sprint to reduce the database engineer's workload
  • D. Ask the scrum master to work the product owner to remove backlog stories that have database dependency

A is the best answer, bcz: 1. few sprint past and issue is highlighted. 2. root cause is lack of database expertise in the team 3. team should be self-sufficient so additional DB expertise is required. A) is the only way to get it.

Selected Answer: A
A. Have other team developers attend training to learn database skills By training other developers to acquire database skills, the team can distribute the workload more evenly and reduce dependency on the two database engineers. This approach not only alleviates the bottleneck but also increases the team's overall flexibility and capacity to handle database-related tasks.

Selected Answer: A
The reason why A. is the best answer, is because in Agile/Scrum you aim to have cross-functional self-organizing development teams. A good way to attain that while maintaining the same Team is with cross-training.
