変更の背景について

Atlassian is committed to delivering improvements and bug fixes as fast as possible. We are also committed to providing world class support for all the platforms our customers run our software on. However, as the complexity of our applications grows, the cost of supporting multiple platforms increases exponentially. Each new feature has to be tested on several combinations of application servers, with setup and ongoing maintenance of automated tests. At times, 30% of the development team is busy coding solutions for edge cases in various application servers. Moving forward, we want to reduce the time spent there in order to increase JIRA development speed significantly.

弊社のユーザーの中では Tomcat が最も幅広く使用されているアプリケーションサーバーであるため、これを標準としました。Tomcat はオープンソース、高速、堅牢、安全で定評があり、操作もしやすく、改良を促進する大規模なコミュニティもあります。事実上業界での標準として、カスタマイズから24 / 7 サポートまで、いくつもの企業が会社レベルのサポート契約の提供を専門的に扱っています。
