Get your apps in Cloud

Assess which apps you’ll need early in your migration journey - ideally in the Assess phase - as you start to evaluate when Cloud makes sense for your team.

87 of the top 100 Server apps are available in Cloud. Plus, there are more Cloud apps available on our Marketplace than Server and Data Center apps combined! 

However, the Cloud versions of your apps may function differently than their on-premise equivalents. Review any feature difference documentation surfaced in the Cloud Migration Assistants or provided in the Marketplace app listing to ensure the app will meet your functionality and security needs in Cloud. In some cases, you won't need specific Server apps on Cloud because the functionality is built into our Cloud products.

Cloud app security is a shared responsibility, with Atlassian providing information, controls and capabilities, and connecting the dots between Marketplace Partners and customers. 

• Atlassian provides information, requirements, and capabilities to help Partners build trustworthy apps in line with accepted industry practices. Atlassian also provides information and control across a number of trust factors so that customers can assess and manage individual Cloud apps against their own requirements. Atlassian scans all Cloud apps for common security vulnerabilities, and enforces security bug fix SLAs to ensure Marketplace Partners are keeping their apps secure. Atlassian takes actions like hiding apps or in some cases pausing apps to protect you from potential security risks.
• Marketplace Partners design apps and operational processes according to their legal obligations, Atlassian’s requirements and general industry best practices for building and maintaining reliable, compliant, and secure apps that protect customer data. Marketplace Partners also provide support and information on their own website, app listing, and in documentation to help customers make informed decisions. 
• Customers do their part to leverage the information provided by Atlassian and Marketplace Partners to assess apps and verify that apps fit within their organization’s guidelines or other requirements. Customers also acknowledge that app installation requires a new relationship with a Marketplace Partner that is separate from the customer’s relationship with Atlassian.

Atlassian’s goals are to help Partners build and maintain trustworthy apps, and to help customers easily identify and assess apps that build customer trust in Cloud. Learn more about Marketplace Trust.

Automated app migration is now supported for many of the most popular Marketplace apps using the Jira and Confluence Cloud Migration Assistants. When you complete an app assessment early on in your migration journey, you’ll understand what migration paths exist for your apps. Then, when it’s time to run your migration, you can either use the Cloud Migration Assistants or manual migration paths to move your app data to Cloud. Contact the Marketplace Partners for your apps directly if no migration path is documented.

Watch our demo on Cloud migrations, which includes live Q&A and migration best practices from our experts, to help you get set up for success with your migration plan. Or if you’re planning to migrate 6 to 10 apps or your migration plan seems complex, work with a Solution Partner for added migration expertise and hands-on support.

Only administrators can access the Cloud Migration Assistants on supported versions of Jira and Confluence Server and Data Center. The Cloud Migration Assistants come pre-installed in:

• Confluence 5.10+
• Jira Software & Jira Core 7.6+
• Jira Service Management & Jira Service Delivery 3.9+

If the Cloud Migration Assistants aren’t installed yet, you can download them from the Atlassian Marketplace. If you’re not an Atlassian Administrator, work with your admin to get your list of current apps, downloaded directly from the Cloud Migration Assistants.

If you’re using custom apps, don’t fear. We launched Atlassian Forge - our Cloud app development platform - making it easier and quicker for developers to build secure, reliable, and scalable apps. Apps built using Forge are deployed to Atlassian's infrastructure, meaning developers can rely on Forge’s hosted infrastructure, storage, and function-as-a-service (FaaS).

Yes. Most Cloud apps offer a 30 day free trial. Some Marketplace Partners may also offer trial extensions as you plan your migration. Reach out to the Marketplace Partners for your apps directly for more information.

Refer to the Pricing tab of the Marketplace listings of your current and Cloud apps to compare costs. You can also contact the Marketplace Partners for your apps to determine if your apps qualify for our dual licensing promotion or our Cloud loyalty discounts.
