Hi,
When doing migration to the cloud we have been talking with our implementation partner about archiving options. Because we are a government organization we have strict regulations about archiving certain types of work for certain types of periods (depending on the topic, from 7 to 30 years) and after that it must be deleted.
Since most of the projects are ongoing, being used by the IT-teams responsible for a certain application, we discussed the option of archiving initiatives (we do use an initiative/epic/US/etc. structure) and where told that that would be an option.
However, I just wanted to make a start with archiving initiatives and since I couldn't find it within Jira, i started searching for it and did find some articles where it is stated that archiving, anything else than a project, is not an option in the cloud. For example: Solved: Archiving a story (atlassian.com)
This seems to be an issue (an actual issue, not a Jira issue 
) for us, but I can't believe that we are the first facing this. Therefore I would like to ask you all, what you might think would be the solution for our situation.
