Can JIRA &/or Confluence be accessed offline?

Shreena Patel1

Hi there,

I am just going through my IT disaster recovery procedure, as our internet was down this morning. We are using both products OnDemand. Is there a way JIRA and/or Confluence can work offline? We do backups each week, is there a way to run our data offline if we needed to in case of these kinds of emergencies?

Would appreciate your support.

Thanks,

Shreena

No. They are web applications and dynamic, so you need to have them running to see their data. "Offline", in the way most people mean it, is useless and irrelevant.

Disaster Recovery is a totally different thing. If you are running your own servers, then your Jira/Confluence licence includes provision for failing over to other backup services. You have said "OnDemand" here, so that's not an option - you are at the mercy of OnDemand's services (Although I suspect that they are pretty resilient and have provision for disasters)
