Dear Jira Users,

As you are aware, Atlassian has announced that support for Jira Software Server will end on February 15, 2024. As a result, Enterprise Applications & Solutions Integration (EASI) and partner divisions will be moving to the Azure DevOps platform as part of the Jira Migration Project.

Divisions that are currently using Jira Server, and are not interacting with EASI projects, are encouraged to transition to Azure DevOps due to its increased security, alignment with U of T’s technical roadmap and future evolution with Microsoft. If your division is transitioning to Jira Cloud, Jira Software Cloud Standard is recommended as the minimum due to security requirements.

Join one of the following Connect+Learn sessions to learn about this project, including:

• An overview of the Jira Migration Project
• Highlights and advantages of Azure DevOps
• Why U of T recommends transitioning to Azure DevOps
• Onboarding and billing processes for Azure DevOps
• Type of support available and accessing resources

If your division would like to onboard to Azure DevOps, please fill out this form. Once onboarded, divisions will be charged back on a quarterly basis.

EASI will continue to work to onboard partner divisions, as listed on the project webpage, to Azure DevOps.
