Stream

A Stream is a workflow created for a specific group of people who work together using their own processes and management style.

For example, a Stream might be:

• A team focused on a specific technology (like DevOps, Backend, Frontend, or Design). These teams usually work on specialized tasks that match their skills. In this case, the stream works like a “professional guild.”
• A cross-functional team that includes different roles and focuses on delivering part of a product. This kind of stream is more product-oriented.

Both types of Streams are supported in the QPM system.

How Streams Work

• Streams can work independently or be connected to other streams.
• Inside a stream, tasks and planning are faster because the team is focused and resources are separated from other teams.
• This setup allows teams to be more flexible and efficient.

Types of Streams in QPM

You can structure work using multiple streams:

1. Different projects inside one product.
2. Multiple teams working independently on the same product.
3. Teams working on completely different products.

Each Stream has a Business Weight, which shows how important it is for the company.
