Server to cloud migration duration

Question

Hi,

We are planning to migrate Jira Software, Confluence and Bitbucket Server to cloud in a client. They have 100-150 users, 7 plugins and 5000 issues more or less.

Do you know how long it could take the migration, please?

Thanks a lot.

As @Robert Wen_Cprime_ already suggested, migration effort (and success for that matter) greatly depends on configuration and customization.

Also check for mail handlers and custom scripting if any of that exists.

From what I see, the timeline for the total migration effort could take weeks to a couple of months at most.  This effort includes:

* evaluation of the seven plugins to see if there's a cloud equivalent
* outline migration strategy (all-at-once vs. a couple at a time); you never mentioned how many projects/spaces/workspaces
* attempt "dry-run" of migration on test cloud instance(s)
* adjust runbook
* perform live migration on production cloud instance(s)

Hope this helps!
