Is there anyway to buy JIRA and Confluence together to install them in cloud?

Suresh Parasuraman

I want to buy JIRA along with Confluence.

Do I need to buy them separately? or Do we have any integrated package for purchase?

Also Do we need to install JIRA and Confluence separately? If it is a case how to integrate them for my projects?

@Suresh Parasuraman  First of all welcome to the community!

Now jumping to your question, I realized that there is some gap in understanding.

Jira and Confluence come in three variants,

1. Server version
   1. You need to install it on your own hardware
   2. Self managed
   3. Yearly license (after first year you need to buy support license)
2. Data Center Version
   1. Exactly same as server version, but have multi-node capacity
   2. Useful for large instances
   3. Billing is same as server but prices are high
3. Cloud version
   1. Managed by Atlassian,
   2. Don't need any installation
   3. Monthly/Yearly billing as per number of users

Let me now take your question based on each variant,

Now, if you are going for a Server/DC variant,

• you need to install it on your own hardware (like your AWS instance, or dedicated server).
• Manage its backup etc.
• For this, you can buy license for Jira and Confluence both in one bill (this is like adding multiple item to cart and checkout)
• You have to install Jira and Confluence seperatly
  • They can be on same machine (if you have enough memory and cpu)
  • They can be linked together using Application links

 

if you are going with Cloud,

• You need to sign up for a cloud site (site name) on behalf of your organization.
  • Like if you can pick 'charlie' as your site name, and
  • your access url will be, https://charlie.atlassian.net
  • remember 'atlassian.net' is constant here (as of now).
• Once your site is activated, you enable any product, like Jira, Confluence, Service Desk
• Billing will be done based on number of products you have enabled and number of users per product.
• You don't need to manage anything else.
