Migrate to Cloud. Leave nothing SAFe® behind.
Atlassian Server reaches end of life in 2029. Protect your PI planning, project hierarchies, and team structures. We help you get there safely.
Ready for take-off?
Plan your journey to Agile Hive Cloud with clarity and confidence.
Migrating to Cloud is more than transferring Jira issues. It means protecting the hierarchies, planning rhythms, dependencies, and shared visibility that keep work moving across your organization.
Follow a structured migration path in six clear phases. Test your route before go-live, understand what can move, and get support from people who know Agile Hive and scaled-agile delivery.
You don't have to take this journey alone – we are here to support you!
Why 2029 Is Closer Than You Think
Atlassian Server end of life is approaching fast. Teams that start planning now avoid last-minute pressure — and protect everything they've built in Jira.

Plan early.
Take-off when you are ready.
Your migration does not have to begin with a deadline. March 2029 may look distant on a calendar — but for an enterprise Jira environment, starting early creates valuable room to assess options, resolve compliance requirements, run test migrations, and choose a cutover window that fits your business. The goal is not to rush. It is to avoid having important decisions forced into the final stages.
Migration Window
Choose a migration window around Planning Intervals (PIs), major releases, and critical business dates.
Scope Decisions
Decide what should move, what should be redesigned, and what can be archived.
Test Migrations
Test representative data and user journeys before production cutover.
Stakeholder Alignment
Give security, compliance, and business stakeholders time to validate the Cloud end state.
Team Readiness
Prepare teams for changed ways of working, not only a changed URL.
A structured migration path
in six clear phases.
Every environment is different, but the journey becomes easier to govern when everyone can see the route. Atlassian's six migration phases provide that structure. Agile Hive adds the scaled-agile perspective needed to protect the relationships between strategy, planning, and delivery.
Inventory your Jira environment, apps, integrations, users, security requirements, and Agile Hive operating model. Identify the hierarchies, dependencies, teams, ARTs, Planning Intervals, custom fields, permissions, roadmaps, and reports that matter to day-one continuity.
Outcome: An agreed scope baseline, named owners, known gaps, and measurable success criteria.

Here's what's on the radar
for your journey to Cloud
Your destination Cloud might include some new characteristics compared to what you're used to — but there's no need to be scared. We are developing full feature parity between Agile Hive Data Center and Cloud to support your teams effectively.
We will help you compare your requirements with the current Agile Hive Migration Scope and identify any decisions that depend on service-assisted or roadmap capabilities.
Turbulence may occur on your journey
but you can be prepared.
A representative test migration turns assumptions into evidence. It gives your team time to measure duration, validate mappings, rehearse communications, identify defects, and improve the runbook before production cutover.
Test as often as you want — without overwriting your live data.
Validation coverage
Technical reconciliation
Issue hierarchy links, PI planning boards, team and ART structures, custom fields, and roadmap data.
Agile Hive hierarchy
Agile Hive structure
Hierarchy, dependencies, team/ART, Planning Intervals, iterations, and roadmap scope.
Acceptance sign-off
Role-based user acceptance
Critical work performed by team members, Product Owners, Scrum Masters, RTEs, Product Management, portfolio stakeholders, administrators, and governance roles.
Rehearsal phases
Operational rehearsal
Freeze, communications, support intake, monitoring, decision gates, and rollback procedure.
We're on this journey together
Bring Agile Hive Migration Engineering into the journey. You know your organization — the hierarchies, the planning cadence, the teams that depend on continuity. We know the Agile Hive data model, the migration tooling, and how to close the gap between a working Server setup and a confident Cloud go-live.
Assess your current setup
Inventory your Jira environment, Agile Hive operating model, issue hierarchies, teams, ARTs, and Planning Intervals before anything moves.
Separate Jira and Agile Hive scope
Keep core Jira migration and Agile Hive-specific data in separate tracks so nothing falls through the gap at cutover.
Identify gaps against the migration scope
Compare your requirements with the current Agile Hive migration scope and surface decisions that depend on roadmap capabilities.
Prepare and test in a sandbox
Run a representative test migration before cutover. Validate hierarchies, permissions, automation, and the critical user journeys that matter most.
Validate hierarchies and team relationships
Confirm that issue hierarchies, PI structures, and ART relationships work correctly in Cloud before you commit to go-live.
Connect product questions to the roadmap
Link capability gaps to the Agile Hive development roadmap so your planning accounts for what's coming — not just what's there today.
Turn your runbook into a continuity plan
A runbook gets you to go-live. A continuity plan keeps teams stable afterwards — with clear ownership, escalation routes, and an improvement backlog.
Start with a structured migration assessment. Bring your Jira inventory, your Agile Hive configuration, and your day-one requirements — we'll take it from there.
