titleReminder related Server and Data Center Licenses

Since Atlassian has scheduled the retirement of Server Licenses in favor of Data Center Licenses, all Apps Vendors have to provide a Data Center version of their Apps. It means to follow a Data Center Validation process with a final approbation by Atlassian.

This process consists into 2 steps :

  • Technical Validation where the Vendor has to answer to detailed set of questions related on how the Apps is built and if it respects a set of rules around different theme : Threading, Cluster Lock Policies, Memory Usage, External integration and many other points.
    The final goal is to validate that no technical issue will be caused on a Data Center instance.

  • Performance Validation based on a multi-node instance with 1 million of Jira issues and benchmark test.
    The final goal is to validate that no performance issue will be caused on a Data Center instance.
Warning

Currently, for all Alkaes plugins, only the 1st step has been internally reviewed. Following, these reviews, few corrections have been applied in order to make Alkaes Apps DC Compatibles (without the official Atlassian Stamp).

The Benchmark procedure for 2nd step has been initiated but no completed, since it requires a large effort around different topics :

  • few technical capabilities,
  • some dedicate time to allocate,
  • and, induced by this time to allocate, some cost in hiring dedicated servers on AWS.

At Alkaes Consulting, I am alone and not at full time, and then not currently able to invest on a short period the required effort on this validation. since I do not know the exact time needed to complete it.

As soon as I will be able to complete without consuming too much time and money, I will go forward. Until that, you will have to use Alkaes Plugins with only my own validation process.
