Content Bounty: Boards, boards, boards: The many faces of different Jira board types

[#1]

Hi,

Looking for an article on the various different types of Boards that can exist in Jira Cloud.

• Jira Software Scrum (team and company managed)
• Jira Software Kanban (team and company managed)
• Jira Business type project boards
• Jira Service Management boards (new as of Feb 2024) https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-Service-Management-articles/Introducing-Boards-for-Jira-Service-Management/ba-p/2544947

There is a generalized intro to boards in https://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/guides/boards/overview#what-is-a-jira-board but these are specific to Agile boards (Jira Software boards). I've seen a number of new Jira users that hear the term 'board' or 'Jira board', and it's easy to understand how that it might not be the type of board they have for their product/project. It might be helpful to just have a single article in Community that explores these different types of boards, or how to quickly identify what kind of board you have based on your product and your project.

Requirements:

Would want to see an article that references each board type, and how to tell them apart at a glance (screenshots would work well here, or a short video).  Also want to see hyperlinks cited to
