Listen to the audio version of this article: [link] Organise the Team around a Product As the name suggests, a product team is focused on a product.

Embracing new technologies like machine learning, micro services, big data, and Internet of Things (IoT) is part of that change, as is the introduction of agile practices including cross-functional and self-organising teams, DevOps, Scrum, and Kanban.
