Hi @Rob Horan

I have personal instances of Jira and Confluence Cloud.  I didn't go the server route, because paying for hosting was cost prohibitive at the time, and $20 a month fit in my fairly lean budget.  We have been using them to track a bathroom remodel and all sorts of sharing of household documents, thoughts, and our own sort of World of Warcraft Wiki.... (we'r nerds, we're comfortable with that)

I am curious about running the server products on a free AWS tier, just for personal use, but I haven't gotten around to it just yet.   

I'd say if you haven't gotten some of the certifications yet, having personal instances to play with are really helpful. in that study. 

Good luck, and let us know what you wind up doing!

I have no AWS experience so... I didn't even know there was a free tier.  $20/month is doable when I have a job, but right now...

Problem is I see no other way to not lose my skill set.

Hello,

If you need Jira or Confluence instances for development, then use instances from Atlassian SDK. 

You can install Atlassian SDK, create a plugin and run atlas-run command to get a Jira or Confluence instance.

You can find more info here:

Thanks, but its not for development, rather for maintaining my administrative skills and knowledge in the undefined period of time that it will take to get back to administration on systems that are not wallet-supported.
