Atlassian Data Center EOL Is Coming
Atlassian is ending support for Data Center products. Organizations running on-prem Jira, Confluence, and Bitbucket need a migration plan now — not later.
Time Is Running Out
Extended support ends February 2027. After that, no security patches, no bug fixes, no compliance coverage.
Compliance Risk
Running unsupported software creates audit findings and regulatory exposure. Your compliance team is already asking questions.
Forge Migration Path
Forge provides zero-downtime migration to cloud-hosted Atlassian tools with full compliance coverage and 24/7 managed support.
Maximum Control for Maximum Compliance
Some organizations can't trust their project management data to any SaaS vendor — even a managed one. For defense, intelligence, financial services, and life sciences teams that need absolute sovereignty, Plane gives you an open-source PM platform you deploy and control entirely.
Your Infrastructure, Your Rules
Deploy Plane on your own AWS, Azure, GCP, or on-premises data center. Air-gapped and classified environments supported. No data ever leaves your perimeter.
Open Source Transparency
AGPL-3.0 with 45K+ GitHub stars. Inspect every line of code. No proprietary black boxes. Your security team can audit the entire stack before deployment.
Governance-Ready Architecture
Pair with Reign AI Gateway to govern every AI interaction with your project data. Full audit trails, policy enforcement, and EU AI Act compliance built in.
Two paths to Plane
Self-Managed Plane
Deploy from GitHub. Your team operates it. Full control over infrastructure, updates, and data. Ideal for organizations with strict data residency or air-gap requirements.

Forge Managed Plane
iTmethods operates Plane for you — single-tenant on your cloud or ours. SOC 2, HIPAA, FedRAMP-aligned. Best for teams that want sovereignty without the operational burden.
