Decentralized Jira Integration

Secure Jira Sync by Design
- Exalate's single-tenant cloud infrastructure and distributed architecture keeps your data safe.

“
The advantage of Exalate’s decentralized architecture is that it’s not like a new learning curve for the customers to get into a new platform and figure out how they need to operate. They can just operate as they normally do, and that makes a huge impact on the overall outcome of security incidents.

FAQs
Answers to the most frequently asked questions
The price of Exalate for Jira depends on the total number of users on your Jira and its deployment model. You can check the exact price on the Atlassian Marketplace.
System failures and down times lead to failed synchronizations. Exalate makes the whole sync process asynchronous using transactional sync queues at both integrating sides. It tracks sync events in the same order as the original issue event. So changes can be applied in the same order once the down time or error is fixed. It also has an integrated retry mechanism to resume the sync from the point of interruption without manual intervention.
Exalate handles formatting differences between different platforms through Groovy-based scripts. It provides a lot of Helper classes and methods to handle these different formats. For instance, it uses specific nodeHelper methods to take care of the HTML and markdown formats Azure DevOps and Jira supports.
Exalate is installed as an embedded add-on on Jira on-premise. For Jira Cloud, it works as an Atlassian connect add-on.
You can also choose to install Exalate on Jira via docker.
Access to these addons is via REST API requests, webhooks, iframes, etc depending on whether it’s Jira Cloud or on-premise.
Most cloud deployment models support multi-tenancy where infrastructure is shared to implement a certain functionality.
So there’s an increased risk of unauthorized access.
Exalate’s single-tenancy model ensures every instance has its own process space, file system, network and database completely separated from all other instances.
This model is available for all cloud deployments of Exalate like Jira, GitHub, Zendesk, Salesforce, ServiceNow and Azure DevOps.
Yes, you can integrate a Jira instance behind a firewall with a public facing Jira Cloud instance.
You can use the public-private connection type to do so.
You can also connect local project configurations by setting up Local connections such as between a JSM project and one or more Jira software projects.
More details on how it works can be found in the security and architecture whitepaper.
Exalate supports all standard fields in Jira Software, Jira Service Management, and Jira Work management, as well as Jira Align (with slight tweaks).
You can sync the basic issue fields like summary, description, issue types, comments, labels, attachments, priority, custom fields etc. In addition to these fields, Exalate’s advanced scripting engine allows you to sync any field that is available via REST APIs using the httpClient method.
