Atlassian Corporation, a global leader in team collaboration and productivity software, has entered into a multi-year strategic partnership with Google Cloud. The collaboration aims to accelerate cloud transformation and bring cutting-edge AI capabilities to customers worldwide.
Under the agreement, Atlassian’s flagship teamwork platform featuring popular apps such as Jira, Confluence, and Loom will run on Google Cloud’s AI-optimized infrastructure. This integration will also enable the development of deeper product connections between Atlassian and Google services, leveraging Gemini models and Vertex AI. The goal: empower organizations to build intelligent AI agents that enhance productivity, streamline collaboration, and drive innovation.
This milestone marks a significant step in Atlassian’s multi-cloud strategy. By making Jira, Confluence, and Loom available on Google Cloud, the company is simplifying adoption for enterprises already invested in Google’s ecosystem. For the first time, customers will be able to purchase Atlassian subscriptions directly from the Google Cloud Marketplace, using their existing Google Cloud committed spend.
