War on IT
• At some point, we had 3 IT administrators and ~20 servers
• That was way too much• We declared a war on IT – no more servers• We migrated:
– E-Mail/Calendars to Google Apps– VCS/Issues/Wiki to JIRA Studio– Production servers to Amazon
• And we’re doing great!
Dark Side
• WE LOVE JIRA STUDIO! – Doesn’t mean that it’s perfect though. Nobody is.
• Things that may become problems:• VCS: Subversion is the only choice, right now• VCS: Forces certain structure of repository, may not be
compatible with existing structure• Google Docs Integration: Great idea, but needs improvement• In general, JIRA Studio is updated few months after
standalone versions. For geeks it’s pretty tough.• Plug-ins installation has to be performed by Atlassian
support (which is very responsive, by the way)
