It was recently announced that Atlassian will be making changes to their server and Data Center offerings in their journey to becoming cloud-first. This means that they will be ending new server license sales and making changes to their pricing for server renewals and upgrades.
Atlassian is offering 3 years of server maintenance and providing discounts for eligible customers to upgrade to their cloud or Data Center products at a lower price.
It is now imperative that you begin considering the best option for your organization moving forward. Cloud services are more reliable, secure, and cost-effective than ever before. In this article, we explore how making the move to cloud can help drive the long-term success of your business.
When your business grows suddenly, you need to scale rapidly, and securely. If you want to grow without some major tech hiccups along the way, cloud technology makes scaling faster, smarter, and more affordable than on-prem servers. It delivers a flexible, responsive technology stack at your fingertips - no lengthy, expensive, manual upgrades required.
“Ease of maintenance was the primary reason we migrated. We’re a lean organization and we want to stay focused on delivering value to our two million members. It’s hard to justify the time spent on internal tool upgrades when they don’t directly contribute to our mission to help people fall in love with their creativity.”
–Sky Frostenson, Director of Technical Product Management, VSCO
The Atlassian Cloud security architecture is designed with consideration of a broad range of industry standards and frameworks and in tandem with their internal threat modeling process. It's designed to balance the need for flexibility with the need for effective controls to ensure confidentiality, integrity, and availability of customer data.

There are many ways to improve your company’s productivity. Hire top talent, improve engagement, minimize meetings, promote or even redesign your office space to boost productive hours. You can also move to the cloud. Nearly 80 percent of IT professionals say moving to the cloud improved their productivity, according to research by Office 365. And a two year study from Stanford School of Business found that 13% of employees who access the cloud remotely showed a 13% increase in productivity.
Systems downtime can cost three times as much as a year-long cloud subscription in a matter of minutes or hours. IT time and resources can be cut in half by a move off-prem. When looking at long-term value, on-prem starts to look less like the conservative choice and more like a consistent drain on your profits.
Dell reports that companies that invest in big data, cloud, mobility, and security enjoy up to 53% faster revenue growth than their competitors.
In 2020 (before the arrival of COVID-9), 7 million people were already working remotely. And as the 2020 pandemic has shown us, remote work can become necessary in an instant. If you aren’t set up for it, it can cost you big. So if you aren’t in the cloud yet, it’s time.
74 percent of organizations say cloud gives them a competitive advantage, and by the end of 2020, experts predict that 83 percent of enterprise workloads will be in the cloud.
Chances are, your competitors are already in the cloud and have instant access to the latest features and security upgrades. If you’re not taking advantage of these benefits, it’s not hard to guess whose business is going to pull ahead of the pack.
