Scrum Kanban
Cadence Regular fixed length sprints (ie, 2 weeks) Continuous flow
Release methodology At the end of each sprint if approved by the product owner Continuous delivery or at the team's discretion
Roles Product owner, scrum master, development team No existing roles. Some teams enlist the help of an agile coach.

Change philosophy Teams should strive to not make changes to the sprint forecast during the sprint. Doing so compromises learnings around estimation. Change can happen at any time
