Summary

This page is for customers considering migration to cloud.

Availability

We have a new version of CSUM for Cloud (CSUMC) that has been submitted and is available, however, we have found a bug that impacts the usefulness of the app and so DO NOT RECOMMEND migration at this time.

Note

SIGNIFICANT BUG

Currently, the ‘user’ making CSUM space group changes must be a system-admin on the instance. Clearly this won’t scale and is an oversight. The expectation is that Space Admins are able to manage groups in the their spaces without further permission.

This issue is under discussion with Atlassian, we hope for a positive outcome that will allow us to offer CSUM for cloud. Failure would mean abandoning all that has been done so far, and rewriting using non-Forge frameworks, that would be a lot of effort.

Cloud app functionality

To briefly cover what is and isn’t in the cloud version of CSUM:

Custom Space User Groups

CSUM Cloud current enables groups to be created and managed within a space.

Delegated User Groups

Are not implemented in CSUMC.

Auditing of group changes

Is not implemented in CSUMC, however, Atlassian have an auditing feature as part of the Premium offering.

LDAP group creation

Is not implemented in CSUMC.

Migration from Server

Currently, we don’t have a migration tool for the subset of ‘global’ configuration. The key ‘configuration’ for CSUM is the created groups and their permissions that are migrated as part of the ‘platform’ so don’t need migration separately. The only thing lost in migration is the global configuration for CSUM that needs to be redone (to restructure the CSUM group prefix/suffix).
