Moving from server to cloud for developers

Atlassian is on a journey to becoming a cloud-first company, and we want you bring you, your apps, and your customers, along with us.

If you're an Atlassian server developer or Marketplace Partner, after February 15, 2024, there'll be no more support for:

• Server products
• Support for server Marketplace apps

Check the server end of life timeline.

Here you'll find resources to assist your migration journey.

Build for cloud

We offer a number of cloud solutions:

• Forge, Atlassian’s serverless app development platform
• Connect
• Or, if your server app code cannot use a cloud equivalent, you may consider Data Center

For more information, you can also check out:

• Comparing deployment options
• Cloud development platform overview

Help your customers migrate

Offering your app in cloud unblocks your customer's migration.

Once you've built a cloud version of your app, visit our App migration platform to find:

• Pre-migration steps such as:
  • Understanding app assessment
  • App vendor checks
• APIs to integrate your existing migration paths with the Cloud Migrations Assistants, or how to build your own migration path to cloud
• Sample apps that show various ways of implementing a migration listener for your server app with Confluence and Jira

Where to go for more information

If you're an Atlassian Marketplace Partner, check the Partner Portal.

To apply for portal access, you need at least one paid-via-Atlassian app and a private domain:

1. Visit Developer and Marketplace support.
2. Select Partner resources.
3. Select Access the Partner Portal.
4. Submit the form with your details, including your Vendor ID.

On the portal you'll find the latest news relating to migration, including:

• FAQs on pricing and sale changes
• Our monthly cloud digest
• Marketplace Partner news and updates
• You can also use your portal account to access the short course, Customer cloud app migration experience for Marketplace partners

If you don’t have access to the Partner Portal, leave your questions and feedback in the Atlassian Developer Community forum with the tag server-eos.
