Changes to Atlassian products

[Giovanni Tirloni]

Hi Justin,

I've submitted a request for licenses for their cloud products so we can assess the situation. The ETA is 3 business days to hear from them.

Re: impact. Unfortunately, it's not possible to use custom domains with Atlassian Cloud products [0]. That means our links to wiki.fluidproject.org and issues.fluidproject.org would be broken.

0 - https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CLOUD-6999

Hi Gio,

Thanks for the update. I remember looking at their cloud offerings pre-pandemic. It seemed like they still offered free cloud options for open source projects. However, the plugins weren’t free anymore. Is that still the case and do we actually need the plugins we’re currently using if we migrate to the cloud? Also do you have a gauge on how else this might affect us? For example will existing links to the wiki and JIRA break once we move to the cloud?

Thanks
Justin

Hello,

Atlassian will stop selling the Server version of their products. We use a self-hosted JIRA Server.

See the announcement and a timeline for the change here:

https://www.atlassian.com/migration/key-offering-changes?tab=server-dates#important-dates

By Feb 2022 there will no more upgrades (new versions).

I think it's unrealistic to expect they will put any effort into releasing new functionality or anything outside critical bug fixes moving forward.

My initial impression is that we'd have to migrate to their cloud offering (like GPII?) or move to a different ticket system altogether.

Regards,
Giovanni
