Abstract: This research article analyzes the current state of agile software development methodologies and how they are being adopted across various software industries. As companies persist in adapting to digital transformation, agile methodologies have progressed past their conventional structures to include new technologies, mixed models, and expanded implementations. This research examines prevailing trends such as the incorporation of artificial intelligence into agile methodologies, the merging of DevOps and DevSecOps with agile frameworks, and the obstacles organizations encounter in the process of agile transformation. This study identifies crucial success factors, prevalent challenges, and new trends in agile implementation through a thorough review of literature and analysis of industry practices. The results show that although agile adoption is on the rise, organizations are progressively tailoring frameworks to fit particular contexts, resulting in hybrid methodologies. The study emphasizes the increasing significance of metrics-based strategies, ongoing education, and cultural change as essential factors for effective agile implementation. This thorough examination offers important perspectives for software development companies aiming to enhance their agile methodologies in a changing technological environment.
