Can Jira run in an air-gapped environment?
Only Jira Data Center can, because it installs on your own servers against your own database and directory. Atlassian stops renewals and expansions on 30 March 2028 and ends Data Center on 28 March 2029, when instances go read-only.
Jira Cloud needs a connection to Atlassian, so it cannot run on an isolated network. Atlassian has announced a future air-gapped deployment, but it targets US classified workloads and has no date, pricing or product list. For most regulated organisations, the practical deadline is March 2028, when a Data Center licence can no longer grow.

An air-gapped system is a computer or network that's physically isolated from the internet and other unsecured networks, with no direct connection to the outside world. This isolation is a security measure meant to protect sensitive data or critical systems from remote attacks.
