Manage and optimize your Atlassian landscape with Portfolio insights Early Access Program
Hello Atlassian Community
I'm Akshay Johri, a Product Manager on the Atlassian Cloud Transition team. We're pleased to announce the launch of our Portfolio insights Early Access Program (EAP), a significant step in our ongoing effort to help you enhance your Atlassian experience across Cloud and Data Center environments.
What is Portfolio insights?
Portfolio insights is a new feature within Atlassian Administration. It offers a centralized view of your Atlassian tooling landscape, enabling you to discover, assess, and optimize your entire Atlassian portfolio across Cloud and Data Center environments. Whether you're planning a cloud migration, optimizing your Data Center environment, or managing a complex hybrid setup, Portfolio insights provides the tools and insights you need to make informed decisions and drive efficiency across your organization.
By centralizing this critical information, Portfolio insights empowers IT leaders, administrators, and migration planners to:
-
Reduce the time and effort required for portfolio assessment and migration planning
-
Improve control and governance by maintaining a clear inventory of all Atlassian products in use
-
Identify opportunities for cost savings and performance improvements
-
Streamline management of multi-instance and multi-product environments
Key components of Portfolio insights EAP
Here’s what you can expect.
Add and discover products
Portfolio insights provides a comprehensive view of all your Atlassian products by allowing you to:
-
Add and maintain connections between on-premises and cloud products, creating a unified Atlassian landscape.
-
Automatically discover associated products through license data and app links. Review and add relevant detected products to your portfolio.
These steps enable strategic planning and uncover consolidation opportunities within your organization.
View the cloud readiness of your Jira instances
Analyze and compare your data against Atlassian guardrails or best practices to understand the cloud readiness of your Jira instance in the areas most critical for migrations:
-
Migration time
-
Users and groups
-
Issue content limits
-
Cloud health
The cloud readiness assessment highlights problems with your data that can affect the migration itself or your future setup in Atlassian Cloud. With detailed recommendations on how to optimize the number of issues, users, or custom fields, you can prepare your instance for a future migration, or just make it run smoother now.
And yes, we’ll also find all those issues where you stack thousands of attachments and even help you optimize them with Jira automation.
Get insights into health and performance of your Jira instance (coming soon!)
Portfolio insights will soon help you monitor and optimize the health of your Jira Data Center instances. You'll receive proactive recommendations to maintain optimal instance health by focusing on:
-
Health score analysis: Assess the overall health of your Jira instance with a comprehensive health score and get recommendations to improve instance performance.
-
Performance metrics: Monitor key performance indicators to ensure optimal system operation.
-
Data optimization: Measure your data against guardrails to optimize Jira entities like issues, groups, projects, and custom fields for improved efficiency.
These insights will empower you to enhance your on-premise setup, ensuring a robust and efficient environment.
Join our EAP for Portfolio insights
Our EAP is being rolled out in three initial phases, with more to come in 2025:
-
Phase 1 Assessments (available Now): Analyze your data against Atlassian guardrails and receive clear, actionable insights and recommendations to prepare for your Jira migration. Read more in our announcement.
