Atlassian announced it over three years ago, but now the last hour has actually arrived: Today, February 15, 2024, support for Atlassian server products ends. This marks the end of a 20-year era – after all, the first version of Jira Server was released in 2002 and the first Confluence Server version in 2004.
What exactly does the end of support mean for Atlassian server customers?
Are you still a customer of Atlassian Server and are you wondering whether you can simply continue to use the products despite the end of support? We strongly advise against this because: Become an Atlassian and Marketplace partner after 12:00 a.m. (PST) on February 15, 2024
no technical support, no security updates and no bug fixes for critical vulnerabilities
for Atlassian server products and apps. There are dangers associated with stopping these services, e.g. B. your systems become a target for threats or vulnerabilities. Additionally, server products are not evolving, denying your teams the chance to work together more efficiently thanks to improved software or new features.
All signs point to Atlassian Cloud
Under these conditions, you should turn your back on Atlassian Server as quickly as possible. And although there are theoretically two options you can switch to with Atlassian Cloud and Atlassian Data Center, we recommend migrating to the cloud.
How come? There are several good reasons:
No manual upgrades and software maintenance Real-time security updates Lower costs for operations, IT, maintenance and hardware Security, data protection, compliance and reliability – all included: Work in globally distributed teams with products that you can access securely across all browsers and mobile devices without a VPN Apps More agility and room for innovation as Atlassian invests the most in cloud research and development Flexible plans for all team sizes and budget cycles (Free to Enterprise)
