Hey team! Atlassian just announced some big news - Jira and Confluence Data Center will reach end of life on March 28, 2029. The Quick Timeline: - Dec 2025 - No new DC apps in Marketplace - March 2026 - No DC sales for new customers - March 2028 - Existing customers can't expand DC - March 2029 - Game over for DC Why the change? Simple: 99% of Atlassian customers are already on Cloud or migrating there (including 75% of enterprise customers). The market has spoken - Cloud wins for speed, cost, and AI features. What this means for you: If you're on DC, you've got 3.5 years to migrate. Sounds like plenty of time, but trust me - complex migrations take longer than you think, especially with: - Custom configurations - Integrations - Large datasets - Training needs My advice? Don't wait until 2028. Start planning now while you have options and aren't competing with everyone else scrambling at the last minute. Currently helping several organizations with their DC → Cloud migrations. If you're facing this transition and want to chat strategy, drop me a DM. Happy to share what I'm seeing work (and what to avoid). Anyone else dealing with this announcement? What's your timeline looking like? P.S. - Bitbucket DC gets special treatment with a hybrid license option, so source code folks have more flexibility.
