What is the difference between ALM and PLM?

Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) are two distinct approaches to managing development. ALM focuses on software development’s lifecycle, including requirements gathering, testing, and deployment. In contrast, PLM focuses on a physical product’s full lifecycle, from ideation to its end-of-life. Overall, the main difference between the two is that ALM is for software applications, while PLM is for physical products.

What is an application lifecycle?

The application lifecycle encompasses phases such as requirements gathering, design, development, testing, deployment, and maintenance. Each phase plays a crucial role in the application’s success, emphasizing the importance of thoroughly testing and meeting user needs.

 

Is ALM an Agile tool?

ALM is not an Agile tool but can fit into an Agile development environment. It manages the application lifecycle from conception to decommissioning, involving processes, tools, and people. Agile teams commonly use ALM tools to manage their projects. However, it’s important to note that ALM itself does not align with Agile principles.
