How to Migrate from Server/Data Center to Cloud
Migrating from Data Center to Cloud is more than a technical transition. It’s a shift in how organizations scale, innovate, and collaborate.
For years, Server and Data Center environments provided control, predictability, and infrastructure ownership. But today, competitive advantage isn’t defined by control alone. It’s defined by speed, flexibility, and continuous innovation.
Moving to Cloud is not just about infrastructure modernization, it’s a strategic decision about how your teams operate and evolve.
Why Organizations Are Moving from Data Center to Cloud
Atlassian has positioned Cloud at the center of its innovation roadmap. As a result:
New capabilities are prioritized for Cloud
Improvements are delivered continuously
Ecosystem apps evolve faster
Integrations become more dynamic and adaptable
Remaining on Data Center may preserve operational stability but it can slow innovation, delay access to new capabilities, and increase long-term maintenance overhead.
Cloud environments are built to enable that momentum.
Benefits of Moving from Data Center to Cloud
Migrating to Cloud unlocks operational and strategic advantages that extend beyond infrastructure.
1. Continuous Innovation: No more waiting for major upgrade cycles. Enhancements roll out incrementally, ensuring your systems stay aligned with evolving business needs.
2. Operational Simplicity: Reduced infrastructure management. Fewer maintenance requirements. Less time spent on upkeep and more time focused on business outcomes.
3. Faster Cross-Team Collaboration: Cloud-native environments enable real-time workflows so when a support case escalates in Salesforce, engineering sees it instantly in Jira without sync delays.
4. Scalable Growth: As your organization grows, Cloud environments scale without heavy restructuring or performance strain.
5. Reduced Long-Term Friction: Cloud minimizes hidden costs associated with maintenance, patching, downtime planning, and resource allocation.
