At-a-Glance: Atlassian Government Cloud is now generally available, giving U.S. government agencies and regulated organizations secure access to the full power of Atlassian Cloud—including continuous innovation, modern service management, advanced analytics, and stronger governance—within a FedRAMP Moderate–authorized environment. This launch makes it possible for government teams to modernize workflows, streamline collaboration, and retire legacy complexity while maintaining compliance and U.S. data residency. For Oxalis customers, AGC represents a major opportunity to elevate mission delivery through a more connected, secure, and future-ready Atlassian ecosystem.
Atlassian Government Cloud (AGC) is now generally available, bringing government agencies and their industry partners a secure, FedRAMP Moderate–authorized cloud environment explicitly built for the way public sector teams work. But the real story isn’t simply that AGC exists: it’s that agencies can finally access the advanced capabilities, innovation velocity, and modern user experiences that Atlassian Cloud has been delivering to commercial organizations for years.
For Oxalis customers, this is a pivotal moment. Atlassian Government Cloud opens the door to faster collaboration, better service management, richer analytics, stronger security, and a long-term foundation that evolves with mission needs. It’s an opportunity to modernize, simplify, and elevate how work gets done, not just replace an aging deployment model.
A New Era for Government Teams: Modern Capabilities Without Compromise
Historically, agencies had to forgo Atlassian Cloud’s modern features because they were forced to remain on Data Center to meet security and residency requirements. AGC eliminates that.
With Atlassian Government Cloud, agencies can now:
Tap into continuous innovation, no upgrades required
Instead of infrequent, high-effort upgrades, teams receive improvements automatically. New features, security enhancements, analytics updates, and workflow optimizations appear as they’re ready—without downtime or maintenance cycles.
Unlock the power of Atlassian Analytics
For the first time, government organizations can use Atlassian’s built-in analytics engine to visualize performance across Jira, Confluence, and Jira Service Management. Cross-team insights that once required complex integrations or manual reporting are now accessible in minutes.
Improve service delivery with modern Service Management capabilities
Advanced approvals, Assets (CMDB), intelligent routing, forms, reports, and a growing roadmap of incident and problem management features give teams the tools they need to deliver faster, more transparent services.
Benefit from evolving platform-wide enhancements
From standardized governance controls to simplified identity management, AGC helps agencies enforce consistency and security across teams without relying on brittle customizations or outdated plugins.
Build on a cloud architecture designed for government compliance
With U.S.-only data residency, FedRAMP Moderate authorization, elevated security baselines, and Guard Standard included, AGC gives agencies the confidence to operate securely, without sacrificing functionality.
This is the moment government teams can finally modernize with confidence.on.

A Platform That Will Keep Advancing, With a Clear Roadmap Ahead
While AGC launches with Jira, Confluence, JSM, and Atlassian Analytics, its roadmap is already well defined. Agencies can expect:
- Sandboxes (2025)
- Backup & restore (2026)
- Guard Premium data classification (2026)
- Expanding integrations and app options
- New incident, problem, and change management capabilities
- Progress toward feature parity with commercial cloud
Government Cloud is not static; it’s evolving, accelerating, and growing alongside agency needs.
This Isn’t About Migration; It’s About Modernization
While Data Center’s 2029 end-of-life is part of the larger context, it should not drive the strategy. The most forward-thinking agencies aren’t moving because they must. They’re moving because Government Cloud enables them to work smarter, faster, and more securely.
Atlassian Government Cloud gives agencies:
- A modern, intuitive experience for users
- A reduction in technical debt and plugin sprawl
- Clearer governance and standardization
- Better service delivery for internal and external stakeholders
- A more defensible security posture
- A foundation that is actively improving
This is a shift toward capability, not away from constraint.

A Moment to Rethink Your Atlassian Strategy, Not Just Your Deployment Model
This is more than a hosting decision. It’s a once-in-a-decade opportunity to redesign how teams work.
At Oxalis, we’ve spent years helping government and regulated organizations modernize Atlassian environments—moving away from siloed, heavily customized Data Center deployments and toward streamlined, standardized, secure cloud operations.
AGC’s general availability gives agencies a chance to:
1. Reduce complexity and legacy technical debt
Most Data Center instances have accumulated years of patching, plugins, and customizations. Migration forces clarity—what’s essential, what’s redundant, and what can be simplified.
2. Strengthen security postures through modern controls
Features like organization audit logs, API token controls, change risk assessment, and Guard features provide a more defensible security architecture than legacy on-prem systems.
3. Improve resilience and continuity
U.S. residency, built-in compliance, continuous updates, and consolidated administration remove many of the operational risks inherent in self-managed systems.
4. Modernize service management and collaboration workflows
New capabilities—like JSM approvals, Assets, post-incident reviews, Confluence analytics, dashboard templates, and more—give teams up-to-date functionality without long upgrade cycles or maintenance burdens.
5. Align with government modernization mandates
Cloud adoption is becoming non-optional across federal and SLED organizations. Atlassian Government Cloud creates a compliant path that meets those mandates and prepares agencies for a cloud-first environment.
