Addressing Data Protection Challenge for Atlassian Users Moving from Datacenter to Cloud with HYCU

With more than 17,000+ SaaS apps in use across enterprises in North America today, several of the most widely deployed and in use are from Atlassian. As Atlassian users, including Jira and Confluence, look to take advantage of Atlassian Cloud, data needs to be protected and restored by a tightly integrated and enterprise-class solution. Andy shares more in a compelling demo on how HYCU is addressing the Jira Backup challenge along with making restoration in light of disruption a 1-click process.

Andy Fernandez and Subbiah Sundaram discuss the importance of protecting and restoring data within SaaS applications like JIRA. They highlighted JIRA’s significance for both HYCU and Fortune 500 companies, emphasizing its role in software release, bug management, customer experience, and revenue generation. HYCU explained that while many organizations assume SaaS applications are fully protected, it is still their responsibility to safeguard data and ensure compliance. They outlined three critical reasons for protecting data in SaaS applications: operational data loss, cyber events and outages, and compliance. The presenters then introduced HYCU’s data protection platform, Protege, which offers backup and recovery for various SaaS applications, including JIRA. They demonstrated the platform’s capabilities, such as granular restoration at the project, attachment, and subtask levels. They also mentioned that HYCU is working on expanding its integrations and aims to have 100 apps in the marketplace by the end of the year.
