Soft limits for cloud-to-cloud migration for Jira
Soft limits are data size recommendations to help you assess the impact of your migration and make decisions about your cloud-to-cloud data movement. We base the soft limits on first-hand experiences dealing with some of our largest customers, but they might not represent every organization’s experience.
Some things to know before you plan a migration
We have observed a higher success rate with migrating cloud-native projects within these soft limits. We recommend migrating all projects with cloud-native data and then moving the other projects.
Cloud-to-cloud migration is currently in beta. This feature may function differently than a generally available feature and may have less scope of functionality. Some issue fields, configurations, and other project types are not yet supported.
In the table below, we’ve described the performance and stability impacts we’ve observed in a single migration and recommended actions you can take if you suspect you fall outside the soft limits.
