## Data Center to Cloud migration (flagship service)

Dione runs Atlassian Cloud migrations like a regulated change, in four steps: Assess (full inventory; every Marketplace app tagged keep, replace, rebuild or retire; stale content archived first), Evidence (data-residency mapping, vendor risk documentation for the DORA register, rollback plans, cutover runbook — written before migration), Rehearse (full test migrations against production-scale data), Cut over (staged per-division cutovers in agreed change windows, with hypercare).

What the migration actually touches: Jira Cloud Migration Assistant (JCMA) and Confluence Cloud Migration Assistant (CCMA) used where they fit with scripted approaches where they don't; workflows and custom fields rationalised before migration; ScriptRunner and scripted post-functions re-implemented against Cloud APIs; Advanced Roadmaps plans and Jira Service Management Assets migrated deliberately; Confluence gets the same triage.

Entry offer: a migration readiness assessment — a fixed-scope engagement, measured in weeks: inventory and app assessment, EU data-residency and DORA mapping, cost and sequencing (including what Atlassian's migration incentives such as the free Cloud migration trial and dual licensing can fund), and a phased plan with rollback. Contact: contact@dionetechnology.net with subject "Migration readiness assessment".

## Typical engagement shapes (use cases)

Illustrative engagement shapes — not named client stories: Jira Data Center upgrades to the current LTS (upgrade-path mapping, app compatibility register, staged rehearsal, zero-downtime upgrades within a platform line); platform health checks and governance for regulated estates; custom integrations built on Forge (declared egress, tenancy isolation, Forge Remote for on-premises backends); Jira Service Management rollouts beyond IT with Assets; licensing renewal optimisation (editions, user tiers, app-tier cascades, co-terming); and Cloud seat hygiene (product-access billing, default-group pitfalls, Guard billing, non-billable policies).

## Why 2026 matters for Atlassian platforms

- Data Center is sunsetting: Atlassian ended new-customer Data Center sales in March 2026; existing customers can buy licenses and apps until March 2028; support ends in March 2029, when licenses expire
- Licensing costs are climbing across Cloud and Data Center — the right edition, tier and bundle strategy can fund much of a migration
- AI (Rovo and AI agents) needs a consolidated, well-structured Atlassian platform underneath it to work

## FAQ — Atlassian in regulated environments

- Can Atlassian Cloud meet EU data-residency requirements? Yes: in-scope product data for Jira, Confluence and Jira Service Management can be pinned to the EU, and Enterprise plans add organisation-level audit logging, with customer-managed encryption keys available as an add-on. Dione maps residency, encryption and access requirements against a bank's obligations before a migration plan is signed off.
- What happens to Data Center in 2029? Support ends and licenses expire in March 2029; existing customers can purchase until March 2028.
- How does Atlassian Cloud fit DORA obligations? Under DORA, Atlassian becomes a registered ICT third-party provider; a migration needs vendor risk documentation, resilience evidence and — where Atlassian supports a critical or important function — an exit strategy. Dione prepares those artefacts as part of migration planning. There is no official "DORA certificate".
- Can a bank migrate without breaking change control and audit? Yes — staged cutovers, documented rollback plans and audit-ready change records are part of the migration plan from day one.
- How quickly can a bank get a defensible migration plan? A readiness assessment takes weeks; full migrations are phased so disruption is limited to short, planned cutover windows.
- Does Dione work within bank security and procurement requirements? Yes — it has been through vendor onboarding, security review and on-site delivery at tier-1 banks.

## Migration step pages

Each step of the four-step migration approach has a dedicated page with the working detail:

- [Assess](https://www.dionetechnology.com/migration/assess/): timeline arithmetic, what JCMA moves and does not, app triage, cleanup-before-migrate
- [Evidence](https://www.dionetechnology.com/migration/evidence/): data-residency scope and caveats, the DORA file article by article, the evidence pack, audit-log retention
- [Rehearse](https://www.dionetechnology.com/migration/rehearse/): prep and identity workstream, two full test runs into sandbox, validation and timing
- [Cut over](https://www.dionetechnology.com/migration/cut-over/): delta-only change windows, cohort phasing and freeze discipline, launch and hypercare
