Flexible
Term · Computing and IT · MLC-T-CMP-001465
Describing a system, component, or process that can adapt to changing conditions, requirements, or inputs without major modification. A flexible software architecture, for instance, allows for the addition of new features or integration with other systems with minimal disruption. This contrasts with a rigid system, where changes are difficult and costly to implement due to tightly coupled components and a fixed structure.
