Crédit Agricole — Jira Server → Cloud Migration & Governance
From a complex, app-heavy Server setup to a lean, governed Jira Cloud — with Xray, EazyBI, and Jira Align integrated for scale.
Overview
Crédit Agricole’s technology teams engaged Atlassway to migrate their Jira Server to Jira Cloud for the CATS entity . The mission: deliver a risk-free migration, rationalize legacy apps, and reconnect Jira Align for portfolio visibility — all while reducing cost and improving maintainability.
Entity: CATS (Crédit Agricole) Entity: Sofinco (Crédit Agricole)
Challenges
- Legacy Server instance with numerous outdated plugins and redundant customizations
- Rising licensing/maintenance costs and fragmented governance
- Zero-downtime requirement and strict data integrity in a regulated environment
- Cloud integration required for Xray (testing), EazyBI (reporting), and Jira Align
Approach
- Audit & Health Check — assessed data model, workflows, app usage, dependencies
- Co-planning with Atlassian — coordinated with the Atlassian Cloud Migration team to de-risk steps
- App Rationalization — replaced legacy plugins with native Cloud capabilities (Automation, validators, field properties, filter subscriptions)
- Migration Execution — executed phased move with validation and fallbacks
- Post-Migration Checks — data integrity, performance, permissions, notifications
- Jira Align Reconnection — restored synchronization for portfolio-level planning
- Governance & Enablement — standards, roles, documentation; trained admins (Aram, Aline)
