RUP vs SCRUM Methodologies Explained

RUP and Scrum are software development methodologies that differ in their project planning and management approaches. RUP utilizes formal predefined plans and documentation, with scope locked at the start, while Scrum employs iterative planning where scope is reevaluated each sprint. RUP is suited to large, complex enterprise projects with milestones, whereas Scrum supports quick enhancements and is less deadline-driven.
