Overview
Wahoo, a leading US-based fitness technology company, was using multiple Jira instances for various projects. This posed collaboration challenges between teams in different instances. As operations scaled up, the siloed Jira environments added considerably to the administration and maintenance costs. However, these Jira instances contained valuable collective knowledge and the historical context of their various systems.
Accelerating innovation meant having a holistic view of the data and information for improved traceability and decision making. Wahoo had a compelling need to consolidate Jira instances without losing historical information, context, and projects. This led them to OpsHub’s Migration Manager solution.
Challenges
- 1 Lack of cross-team/project traceability and collaboration across Jira environments
- 2 High operational and administrative overheads for running multiple instances
- 3 Choosing an agile, risk-free migration/consolidation path that is non-disruptive and has zero downtime
Uptime and High-Fidelity Data Jira Cloud Migration Helps Wahoo Accelerate Innovation
OpsHub worked in tandem with the client and their development teams. The Jira migration was completed without data loss and with zero downtime. All the projects were migrated preserving complete history and links between issues. In particular, the migration supported cross-team/cross-project dependencies and complete visibility throughout the migration. During migration, teams continued to work in the source Jira systems without any constraints or interruption. OpsHub’s flexible approach and highly collaborative partnership with the client made the transition seamless and hassle-free, ensuring project success.
