Data Center is a self-hosted deployment option available for many Atlassian tools. Purpose built for Atlassian’s largest customers, Data Center provides high availability, consistent performance at scale, and admin control and flexibility.
As the use of the application grows, the cluster of servers can grow with it to provide increased throughput for requests. In addition, if one server experiences downtime, there are other nodes in the cluster to take over the load, resulting in a significant reduction in downtime for users. And far fewer angry emails in your admin’s inbox. Finally, Data Center gives your admins the flexibility to deploy in the way they want to, whether that’s on premise or hosting in the cloud (IaaS).
