Compliance with regulatory standards is the number one priority for every medical manufacturer. Ensuring pipelines are secure and compliant doesn’t just ensure safety, but it results in better quality products. When a startup medical manufacturing company contacted SPK regarding risk mitigation within their software pipelines, we knew how to aid them in their compliance journey.
Not only did migrating to Jira Cloud streamline our operations, but it saved us from unnecessary spending. Without SPK’s help, we would have had far more downtime. SPK allowed us to quickly move our data and get back to work.

Challenge
Having separate Jira instances made collaboration difficult for engineering and IT teams. They did not have seamless workflows which led to inefficiencies that wasted time and money. In addition to these costs, this organization was also paying for both solutions when they only needed one. Furthermore, having some data in Jira Server and other data in the Cloud made it difficult to comply with the strict security standards of the medical industry.
Solution
SPK experts have extensive experience with Atlassian Cloud migrations. We knew this data needed to be extracted, transformed, and moved over as quickly as possible. To start the migration, we first extracted the configuration data and configured Jira Cloud. Then, we extracted the user data and aligned it to their current IdP solution with Atlassian Guard. The manipulation of local user accounts into their security controls identity provider ensured a smooth transition so teams could easily pick up where they left off in Jira Server.
Results
This migration resulted in robust compliance support as this company’s systems are now aligned with cloud security standards. In addition to this, the organization is saving over $40,000 by being on Jira Cloud. Moving to the cloud has also improved user experience due to Jira Cloud’s intuitive interfaces and smoother integrations. This will aid in enhancing productivity and collaboration with high-quality tools. Overall, this migration only took 26 hours to complete. The project finished on time and the medical device company is happy with their results. If you know a company that could benefit from these services, reach out to us via our referral program!
