The Waterfall SDLC Model is a linear and sequential approach to software development.
Phases include:
- Requirements Analysis: Defining system requirements.
- System Design: Creating system specifications.
- Implementation: Coding and unit testing.
- Integration and Testing: Combining modules and testing the system.
- Deployment: Releasing the system to users.
- Maintenance: Fixing issues and making improvements.
Advantages: Simple, easy to understand, and works well for projects with well-defined requirements.
Disadvantages: Inflexible, difficult to accommodate changes, and testing occurs late in the process.
