Yahoo! JAPAN Top Page and Yahoo! JAPAN App are the “gateways” to the entire Yahoo! JAPAN website and simultaneously provide a wide variety of Yahoo! JAPAN services such as search, news, timeline, and weather.
It also means that they have many competitors and need to respond to changes in the market environment, and they also need a large-scale development organization to develop many functions. To gain the trust of a large number of users, “high quality” is required as well.
They use a combination of Kanban-based unique development organization and flow for achieving both “response to changes” and “large-scale development organization” and XP for achieving both “high quality” and “speedy development” on the Yahoo! JAPAN Top Page. In addition, they accumulate and quantify Kanban data to make decisions based on data.
In this session, Masashi Kaneda will introduce the development organization and the expansion of the flow of the Yahoo! JAPAN Top Page and its actual operations.
