What database should I use for Jira Server?
We've long been supporting the most commonly requested & used databases. A typical question often asked by customers is which database they should use when self-hosting their Jira instance. Up until now we've remained database agnostic when asked this question.
Having reviewed this position recently, we believe there are benefits for customers in using PostgreSQL. In addition to being tested to the same standard as all of our databases PostgreSQL is used;
- by Atlassian internally for all of it's Jira instances
- for all Atlassian's Cloud Jira instances - that's tens of thousands of instances used by our customers
This means we do more dogfooding and see more real world usage of PostrgreSQL than any of our other supported databases. That's why we now recommend you choose PostgreSQL for your Jira server instance.
