Faster product development and deployment

With the cloud, which enables remote work and distributed teams, users may instantly access extra processing capacity and systems, allowing you to do CI/CD tasks concurrently.

Reduce operational and physical costs

On-prem also has a lot of unaccounted-for operating and material expenditures that don’t apply to cloud computing. Servers, server support, software renewal/licensing (and over-licensing), real estate, maintenance, asset management time/audits, electricity bills, etc. are all included in this.

Reduce – or even eliminate – the cost of major incidents

With on-prem, your IT team is solely responsible for downtime, which can have significant financial consequences in the form of lost revenue, decreased internal productivity, SLA fines, overtime, or on-call emergency pay.

Automatic scaling and load-balancing

With automated scaling in the cloud, computing power may be scaled up to address unexpected surges in usage.

Teams can embrace cloud migration as an opportunity to optimize internal procedures, enhance speed, and productivity both within and outside of their tools.

Atlassian Cloud Migration Approach

Purpose-fit guidance and support for your journey to Atlassian Cloud

At MicroGenesis we take a modularized approach, working alongside our customers and Atlassian to give all the tools resources and recommendations necessary to effectively and flawlessly execute their migration to Atlassian cloud. Our process model is perfected with over 20 years of expertise by leveraging industry standard practices, tools, resources, and ecosystems to facilitate faster and safer migration of your self hosted Atlassian apps or even 3rd party applications on to the Atlassian Cloud.

Discover

The first step is to understand your current landscape, evaluate if moving to cloud is right for you and what you can expect to change as a result. Migrating your Jira or Confluence instance to cloud is the biggest (and last) upgrade you’ll ever have to make.

Discover

Assess your current cloud and server landscape and apps

Understand what product(s) you have in cloud and server, and who’s using them. Also consider apps you may have installed – they aren’t automatically migrated when you move from server to cloud.

Review your security and compliance needs.

Discuss with your procurement or security teams to ensure Atlassian cloud products meet your requirements.

Assess cloud pricing and compare plans.

You want to assess the license options and overall license cost. As an Atlassian Solution Partner, we can help ensure you pay for what you need and nothing extra. Making your migration to cloud headache-free with minimal disruption.

Plan

Now that you’ve decided to move, it’s time to figure out what steps you’ll need to take to get there and what your strategy should be. As an Atlassian Solution Partner, we can help provide a full audit and outline different options that work best for you.

Plan

Set up your organization

An organization allows you to view all Atlassian cloud users at your company in one place, manage users’ accounts, and set up security features like SAML SSO. As part of our migration service, we can create an organization for you automatically, or we can transfer a site into an existing organization.

Verify your domain and claim users’ accounts

Verifying your domain will allow you to verify ownership of your company’s domain, as well as to claim users’ accounts with that domain.

Evaluate if you need Access

Atlassian offers Access, an enterprise-wide subscription for enhanced security and centralized administration across every Atlassian cloud product in your organization.

Assess the size and complexity of your data

We can review your self-hosted Atlassian instance to conduct a comprehensive analysis of your data size, user count, and identify opportunities to reduce complexity. Depending on your data volume, we can recommend the best Atlassian cloud plan and ensure end-to-end data integrity. Our Atlassian migration support will guide you through a seamless transition to the cloud with minimal disruptions.

Preparation

It’s time to get your people, data, and environments ready to migrate.
Preperation

Determine app migration pathways

After we’ve audited your third-party apps and custom integrations, we can help determine how to migrate those you’ll be using in cloud, extract or port any migration data from server to cloud apps and maintain data integrity along the way.

Ensure you’re on a supported server version

Next step is to check that you’re on a supported server or Data Center version for your migration method and that you won’t need to upgrade before migrating.

Clean up your self-hosted instance

Review your self-hosted instance(s) to identify what you can clean up prior to moving. You’ll want to review groups and permissions, see how you can minimize customizations, and identify inactive projects (Jira) or spaces (Confluence).

Review your anonymous access settings

Jira and Confluence can be configured to allow anonymous or public access – allowing anyone to access your site regardless of whether they’re logged in. Before moving to cloud, check that your anonymous access settings match what you would want in cloud.

Set up single sign-on (SSO)

If you plan to use SSO in your cloud site, set this up in advance so it continues working seamlessly for your users when you migrate. Before setting up SSO, you’ll need to verify a domain for your organization. Note: SSO requires a subscription to Atlassian Access.

Powering Enterprise Level Digital Transformation

Test

It’s almost the end of the finish line! Our support for basic and complex enterprise level migrations ensures you have a production migration checklist ready to help determine if the migration will work, how long it will take, etc.

Test

Back up your data

No matter which migration method you’re using, we recommend backing up your selfhosted instance of Jira or Confluence before migrating. For peace of mind with this step, you can rely on our team of cloud migration specialists to ensure data fidelity and that no data is lost.

Run a test migration

Test your migration, including Atlassian migration, to get familiar with the process and ensure everything works as expected. Establish a clear timeline for your production migration. This is the best way to ensure a successful transition, determine expected downtime, and resolve any potential issues in advance.

Install or migrate apps

As part of testing, you’ll want to make sure to install or migrate any apps you plan on using in cloud. As part of our services, we test the functionality of apps and ensure they’re working as expected.

Conduct user acceptance testing

We can help conduct UAT testing and prepare the necessary training materials to share with your users. This will not only help you catch any unexpected issues but can help your organization prepare for change.

Deliver

During this stage, the actual migration takes place. This may involve transitioning your data and applications to Atlassian Cloud or reconfiguring existing systems for interoperability.

Deliver

Validation

After a successful migration, we make sure everything has been transferred and is operating as it should: applications working smoothly; data secure and accurate. All elements are given our stamp of approval before the process closes.

Optimization
