Case Study: Mercedes‑Benz achieves zero server maintenance and improved performance with Jira Software

Mercedes-Benz drives innovation on the low-maintenance, high-performance Atlassian Cloud Enterprise platform

Mercedes‑Benz, a leading global automaker, faced growing overhead from managing on‑premises Atlassian Data Center tools and wanted to shift resources from routine maintenance to higher‑value work without compromising security or compliance. Maintaining multiple servers and applications had tied up a large team and created performance and scaling concerns as the company grew.

They migrated their Modern Collaboration Platform to Atlassian cloud, moving more than 30,000 users and thousands of projects and spaces. The cloud migration eliminated server maintenance, improved performance and uptime, preserved strong security controls (MFA, encryption, data residency), enabled self‑service and automation, and reduced the platform team from about 80 to 15 people—freeing staff for strategic work.
