The initial version of Planning Poker app was created for Jira Cloud. As it was getting more popular we got requests to make it available for Jira Server / DC. There is not much in common between Jira Server / DC and Cloud, so making app available for another deployment type would mean re-writing it from the scratch. And that’s when the “hybrid” version of Planning Poker for Jira Server / DC was released. That app connected to cloud services of Planning Poker as the storage and processing engine. The user interacted with Cloud version of the app injected into Jira Server / DC through iframe. Some time later an “on-premise” version of Planning Poker was released that didn’t rely on external services and stored all data inside Jira Server / DC database. A migration mechanism was added so customers could easily switch to “on-premise” version and keep using Planning Poker. |

As we keep adding more features to Planning Poker for Cloud and Server / DC, we can’t longer maintain a compatibility between “hybrid” and Cloud version. That dependency significantly slows us down and increases chances of introducing bugs in both versions of the software. We have recently migrated Planning Poker for Jira Cloud from Digital Ocean provider to GCP (Google Cloud Platform) - see List of changes in Data Security and Privacy Statement: v1 to v2. And we are going to shut down the “hybrid” version of the app on that will unblock decommissioning of service in Digital Ocean and will also reduce our operational costs. |
