Automate Jira deployment within Kubernetes

Question

Hi all and happy new year,

We are trying got automate Jira & Confluence deployment. The idea is to provide a Forge as a Service including Jira & Confluence.

Our aaS approach is to deploy the offcial & supported Docker image from Atlassian, ask the requester its licence, deploy the service, push its licence and apply all configurations on the service running in Kubernetes.

Have you already automated Jira deployment? Basically, do we have to push the licence with a SQL query or is their a better way to "install" it? Can we export and then import all the configuration --server name with placeholder referencing an OS variable, ...?

Hope you have some clues/advices/solutions for me,

Cheers,

Olivier.

Hi @Olivier Dupré

At Apwide we have automated the deployment of Jira instances inside Docker containers. The last time we checked, there was no official Jira Docker image from Atlassian, but it may have changed.

We have documented our approach here:

You can contact @Guillaume _Apwide_ if you need more info, he will be happy to share his experience on the topic.

Cheers,

David
