Thanks for Comment @Sagar Mahajan .

Is there any Documentation available on Atlassian which can be help to understand the Actual Problem/Issue which will comes if we directly go with Production Environment.

As per my understanding we may face issue in terms of functionality broken , Site Down Due to memory cache issue as jira is java based application  so it can be due to Issues in JVM  related memories etc.

This is my understanding as per working experience but is there any documentation on it ?

Hi @Nishant Paraskar These are couple of things need to consider before installing the plugin on production site.

1. What functionality that plugin is providing and based on that the impact can be identified.

2. As the plugin is custom developed if you encounter any issue on production then it will make a site down or there may be other implications that some functionalities will be broken.

3. If it's a time bound still I would recommend to have at least basic testing on lower instances before installing it on production.
