I have a lot of data today in a custom JIRA but when it reaches 1.8 million issues it stops working. I´m looking for scalability alternatives but I'm not sure if the licensing model allows me to do it ( the text of license is not so specific...) * Is it possible to scale JIRA in a cloud (AWS), with multiple instance without additional costs? * is it possible to modify database schema? i know that all the issues are stored in a single table, if a could split in different tables I would decrease the load * Is it possible to separate JIRA in a web server and multiple database instances with replication without additional costs? If anyone has more alternatives I will be glad to hear all of them

nav[aria-label="Primary Navigation"] { padding: 0; & ul { list-style: none; width: 100%; display: flex; flex-direction: row; justify-content: start; align-items: start; gap: 30px; padding: 0; & li { margin: 0; } & ul li { list-style: none; } } }

Jira (version 6) freezes with 1.8 million issues. Can anyone contribute with alternatives or validating some ideas?

I´m looking for scalability alternatives but I'm not sure if the licensing model allows me to do it ( the text of license is not so specific...)

Is it possible to scale JIRA in a cloud (AWS), with multiple instance without additional costs?
is it possible to modify database schema? i know that all the issues are stored in a single table, if a could split in different tables I would decrease the load
Is it possible to separate JIRA in a web server and multiple database instances with replication without additional costs?

If anyone has more alternatives I will be glad to hear all of them smile

The bad news first:

>Is it possible to scale JIRA in a cloud (AWS)

No.

>is it possible to modify database schema?

Absolutely no, it has no idea of how you'd handle separate tables

>Is it possible to separate JIRA in a web server and multiple database instances with replication without additional costs?

Nope, it doesn't do any clustering at all

The better news is actually very simple - JIRA data centre is where you need to go. (The other option is to archive and delete issues, but that has it's own set of complexities) See https://www.atlassian.com/enterprise/data-center
