Atlassian's decision to end-of-life its Data Center products by March 2029 necessitates major infrastructure changes for many organizations. This forces a difficult choice between adopting unsuitable deployment models or seeking new vendors. GitLab emphasizes customer choice, offering self-managed, cloud, and hybrid options within a single AI-powered DevSecOps platform. Unlike vendors pushing cloud-only solutions, GitLab supports diverse needs, crucial for organizations in healthcare, finance, and government. These sectors rely on self-managed deployments for compliance, security, and sovereignty, which cloud-only architectures often cannot fulfill. Forced cloud migrations incur significant costs beyond finances, including lost integrations and regulatory hurdles. Fragmented toolchains also reduce developer productivity, with many spending substantial time on integration. GitLab provides a consolidated, AI-native platform, integrating code management, CI/CD, security, and planning. The company offers automated migration tools and has a proven track record of successful, large-scale migrations. A Forrester study highlights significant ROI, time savings, and cost reductions with GitLab. Organizations seeking control and compliance are urged to evaluate alternatives now. Modern DevSecOps platforms should offer comprehensive functionality and deployment flexibility without compromising security or data sovereignty. GitLab invites potential customers to explore migration options and try their unified platform.
