Atlassian Data Center Now Supported on AWS | Elasity

Written by iTMethods | Oct 21, 2016 4:01:14 PM

This year’s Atlassian’s Summit was filled with exciting news – including an announcement from Atlassian that they will begin supporting Data Center applications on AWS.

Whether you’re already running your Atlassian applications on AWS or are looking into that option, this is major news. AWS support for Data Center will enable you to unlock the full power of the AWS cloud without compromising on the availability, scalability, and performance of Atlassian’s Data Center options.

Deploy Your Data Center on AWS and Receive $1,200 in AWS Credits!

Atlassian and Amazon are making it easy to adopt a Data Center on the AWS cloud. If you evaluate JIRA Software Data Center or Bitbucket Data Center before December 31, 2016, Amazon will offer up to $1,200 in credits to help you cover the costs.

But don’t delay! There are a limited number of credits available, so you need to act fast.

Funded Migration to the AWS Cloud through Elasity’s Proof of Concept (PoC) Program

In addition to receiving the $1,200 in AWS Credits, Elasity is providing funding to offset the costs of migrating your Atlassian Data Center to AWS.

Why Choose a Data Center Deployment Option?

Atlassian’s Data Center deployment options (available for JIRA Software, JIRA Service Desk, Portfolio for JIRA, Confluence, and Bitbucket) mean availability when you need it, unparalleled performance, and maximum scalability:

  • High Availability: By clustering multiple active servers, sharing files, and balancing loads across your Data Center clusters, you can ensure users continue to have uninterrupted access to their most critical applications (even in the event of a failure).
  • Performance at Scale: Whether you have two or four nodes, the Data Center deployment option allows you to boost capacity without performance taking a hit. Hardwired resilience and dedicated nodes for automated tasks deliver high-quality service whenever your teams need it.
  • Instant Scalability: Atlassian’s Data Center deployment option lets new nodes join with no downtime, existing nodes synchronize automatically, and applications to re-index without locking the system. You can do all this scaling without incurring any additional license costs (since Data Center deployment options are licensed by the number of users not CPUs or servers).
