Unless you've been hiding under a rock, you should be well aware that a few years ago, Atlassian signaled to the world that they were ending the life of their beloved Jira Server product and that customers were required to make a choice.
To move from Jira Server to either Jira Data Center or to Jira Cloud. To make it real, Atlassian also declared to the market that it would officially end support for Jira Server on February 22nd, 2024.
What has eventuated, is that typically, Jira customers have been adopting one of these three strategies;
- Immediate strategy to migrate to Cloud
- Migration to Data Center 'forever'
- Migration to Data Center as a 'stop-gap'
Ok, so some of you might observe that some people have decided to just not do anything, but as this resource center is all about best practices, we're going to pretend that that is not happening!
If you've not yet finalized your cloud migration project - watch this informative webinar from expert, Michael from SPKAA.

The Risk of Not Moving from Jira Server
So the Jira Server End of Life date has passed and anyone who is still on Jira Server should be worried. Although Jira Server is a highly stable product, the biggest risk to anyone left on the platform is the known security vulnerabilities.
In 2023, we hosted a webinar with an expert cyber security from BlueRidge Consultants. In that webinar, we discussed that critical vulnerabilities will not be addressed by Atlassian after EOL for Server but also, that cyber criminals will likely see this as an opportunity to seek out and target unsupported Jira sites.
