It has always been argued that the two practices (distribution + agile) are actually incompatible. Introduction of agile methodologies in distributed field raises new challenges for development infrastructures to support collaboration and knowledge sharing in software development. Agile in a distributed setting does not mean step-by-step implementation of a particular agile methodology. It means collaboration among distributed teams to collate processes that follow agile principles and put together a methodology that works for them. This paper finds out different parameters for applicability of agile in distributed environment and proposes a new tool called Agile Information Radiator for better communication and knowledge sharing among distributed teams members. The empirical analysis validates some long-held beliefs, it also provides some surprises.The findings agree with many of the 12 principles of agile practices laid down in the agile manifesto. The other three auxiliary factors identified also support several manifesto practices. On the other hand, the study findings fail to support several common assumptions about agile success factors.
