Atlassian has announced that they will no longer be selling Jira Server licenses after Feb. 2, 2021! (https://www.atlassian.com/migration/faqs#server) Although existing customers will be able to renew their support for 3 years, updates will consist only of bug fixes and security updates. Migrations can sometimes be tricky and require a lengthy planning phase so now would be a great time to get the information you need. Pavel Fomin, Director of Cloud Migrations at Cprime will explain the options for keeping the lights on and which path is best for your company.
