Agile Insights & Glossary

What are Team Topologies?

Team Topologies is a framework for organizational design that defines four fundamental team types to minimize cognitive load and maximize the flow of value.

The four types are: Stream-aligned teams (end-to-end delivery), Enabling teams (helping others overcome obstacles), Complicated-subsystem teams (specialized math/engineering), and Platform teams (providing self-service infrastructure).

By deliberately designing how these teams interact, enterprises can scale agile without creating a tangled web of dependencies that paralyzes delivery.
