Atlassian Cloud Migration FAQ - Internal
This FAQ will cover the internal Staff and Contractor Atlassian environments at jira.linuxfoundation.org and confluence.linuxfoundation.org.
For information about the LF Project migration effort, please see Atlassian Cloud Migration FAQ - Projects
- What is the reason for the move?
The LF IT team will be migrating our Atlassian Jira & Confluence environments to Atlassian Cloud - shifting away from Data Center; and into a more robust environment for our users and projects.
- The LF IT team will only be migrating Jira Software Projects, and will not be migrating any Confluence spaces that are a public, linked Knowledge Base for a JSM project.
- Will the JSM/JSD/Support portal be included in this migration?
- No, our support portal will not be migrating to the cloud. You will continue to still use the current platform (https://support.linuxfoundation.org, https://support.lfx.dev and https://staff.linuxfoundation.org) for opening and actioning requests.
