Migrating to Jira Cloud

If you are considering migrating your Jira instance from Server or Data Center to the Cloud, this page provides useful information about Optimizer for Jira and how it can help make your migration even easier.

Do you need to migrate Optimizer for Jira data?

Great news! No migration is required to move Optimizer for Jira from Server/Data Center to Jira Cloud.

Optimizer does not store any data that needs to be migrated and will only display information based on what is contained in your Jira system. This means you can continue to use Optimizer on your current Jira instance without any implications to your planned migration.
