Enterprises are moving away from self-managed deployments to cloud-hosted Atlassian applications.
Whether you’re migrating all of your users to cloud in phases, or retaining some users on a self-managed deployment, you may need to run both Atlassian Cloud solutions as well as Server or Data Center ones in parallel for some period of time.
In either case, maintaining self-managed & cloud instances create a lot of questions for the enterprise, including:
In what order do I migrate my users?
How do I ensure that my server and cloud instances communicate effectively?
How do I ensure my apps still function?
How do I maintain complete data security?
The answers to these questions look different for each enterprise. They depend on multiple factors such as:
The number of users in your organization
The number of apps in use
The complexity of your data
Your specific data compliance needs
However, there are a few tried-and-true strategies for migrations.
No journey to cloud is one size fits all. And for most organizations, the process as a whole could take 6-24 months, leaving your teams to work across both self-managed and cloud environments longer than expected.
Most organizations have never needed to create and navigate a hybrid IT model before. Answering these questions can be challenging, and the stakes are very high.
That’s why Atlassian highly recommends customers work with an Atlassian Solution Partner - like us - for any cloud migrations with thousands of users to create a future-proof strategy.
