Atlassian Data Center is being discontinued –

plan ahead by 2029

Atlassian has officially announced that its Data Center products will reach end of life (EOL) on 28 March 2029. This strategic decision marks the end of an era – and at the same time the beginning of new opportunities in the cloud.

This decision affects many organisations that have so far run their Atlassian landscape on-premises. It now presents an opportunity to plan the move to the cloud deliberately – in a structured, transparent way and within a timeframe that allows room for adjustment and optimisation.

As a certified Atlassian Solution Partner, we are here to support you throughout – strategically, technically and operationally.

With the end of life (EOL) of Atlassian’s Data Center products, Atlassian will completely discontinue sales and support for these solutions. The key milestones are:

This decision affects Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket and Marketplace apps.
