Ciao Giorgio Ciao Gianmarco in questo
breve video vorremmo spiegare agli
utilizzatori delle versioni server di
atlassian che ancora oggi non hanno
migrato al cloud o al Data Center Quali
sono i passaggi fondamentali per fare
questo salto certo Gianmarco Ormai sono
2 anni più o meno che aiutiamo i nostri
clienti In questo senso adesso le
richieste stanno anche aumentando perché
la fine del supporto delle licenze
server Comunque è prevista a febbraio
2024 ormai vicino innanzitutto Perché
scegliere Cloud o on premise con la
versione dat Center Allora la versione
dat Center viene scelta se le politiche
aziendali non prevedono comunque
un'apertura al cloud e se le
customizzazioni fatte negli anni sono
tante si vogliono comunque mantenere
tutte bisogna poi considerare la
questione dei plugin ci sono dei plugin
fondamentali che non sono ancora
presenti nel Marketplace della versione
Cloud di atlan eh Inoltre la versione
datacenter è quella più adatta quando il
numero degli utenti di gira software e
confluence sono già oltre 250 Anche
perché il primo tier è tra 0 e 500
utenti e il cloud Allora il cloud è
diventata ormai la versione di punta di
atlassian e prevede una maggiore
flessibilità a livello di utenti ha
Infatti Deter più piccoli come per
esempio dai 25 ai 50 utenti dai 50 ai
100 utenti e sempre più aziende Inoltre
la scelgono perché non vogliono gestire
internamente tutta
l'infrastruttura quindi le attività di
aggiornamento dei vari tool i Plugin eh
in questo modo è fondamentalmente la
struttura di atlan che si prende in
carico tutto questo Quali sono i
passaggi per valutare una migrazione
Allora bisogna Innanzitutto fare un
Assessment dell'istanza che si intende
migrare e avere la versione aggiornata
all'ultima meglior Release questo è già
un buon punto di partenza poi bisogna
valutare il reale utilizzo che si è
fatto con i tool di atlassian e valutare
come replicare ciascun progetto workflow
plugin nell'ambiente Cloud di atlassian
e per la versione Data Center sulla
versione Data Center è un po' più
semplice D'altronde è soltanto un cambio
di infrastruttura nel senso non sarà più
un singolo nodo come nella versione
server Ma si potranno creare più nodi
per una maggiore scalabilità E
affidabilità inolt nativamente la
versione datacenter porta con sé dei
nuovi moduli che prima non c'erano
quindi di questi sono per esempio
l'advance roadmap il single Sign on la
funzionalità di clustering Ovviamente
avendo a disposizione più nodi data
cleanup ehm oltretutto la possibilità di
gestire diverse provider che funziona
molto utile per molte aziende questo
solo per citarne alcuni una domanda che
ci viene spesso posta e quanto ci vuole
vero purtroppo ogni istanza le sue
customizzazioni e complessità quindi
soltanto attraverso un puntuale
Assessment si possono effettivamente
quantificare con accuratezza le
tempistiche necessarie alla migrazione
che consigli potresti dare a Quelle
aziende che vogliono fare questo
passaggio stanno sicuramente facendo la
scelta giusta e cambiando versione
Inoltre può essere l'occasione per fare
pulizia ed eliminare il superflu per
concentrarsi poi sulle nuove
funzionalità che rendono il lavoro
ancora più fluido ed agile per chiudere
consiglio di provare la versione
gratuita sul sito aasian così da vedere
come la soluzione sia migliorata e poter
verificare le nuove funzionalità offerte
