Big Bang Model




The Big Bang model is SDLC model where there is no specific process followed. The development just starts with the required money and efforts as the input, and the output is the software
developed which may or may not be as per customer requirement.

Big Bang Model is SDLC model where there is no formal development followed

and very little planning is required. Even the customer is not sure about what exactly he wants and the requirements are implemented on the fly without much analysis. Usually
this model is followed for small projects where the development teams are very small. 


Big Bang Model design and Application
Big bang model comprises of focusing all the possible resources in software development
and coding, with very little or no planning. The requirements are understood and implemented as they come. Any changes required may or may not need to revamp the complete software.

This model is ideal for small projects with one or two developers working together and is also useful for academic or practice projects. It's an ideal model for the product where requirements are not well understood and the final release date is not given.



Big Bang Model Pros and Cons
The advantage of Big Bang is that its very simple and requires very little or no planning.
Easy to mange and no formal procedure are required.

However the Big Bang model is a very high risk model and changes in the requirements or misunderstood requirements may even lead to complete reversal or scraping of the project. It is ideal for repetitive or small projects with minimum risks.
