Architecture and specific information for Requirement Yogi Cloud (Confluence and Jira)
Anchor | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
|
Accurate on February 15th, 2022:
The app is deployed on Amazon AWS,
This app is integrated with Atlassian using the Atlassian Connect Spring Boot framework. It is not an Atlassian Forge product. It means, when the user interacts with Atlassian Confluence and Jira where the app is installed, Atlassian notifies the app of changes, the app downloads the relevant information, extracts the necessary information and stores it in AWS.
The app is deployed in EC2 in the AWS Region eu-west-1 (Ireland),
The data is stored in AWS RDS Aurora Postgres, with encryption enabled, in the same AWS Region.
The network allowing access to the database is a private subnet, and there is no direct route from the worldwide internet to the database itself,
The logs are stored in AWS CloudWatch using the default encryption,
The change events are stored in AWS CloudTrail,
Employees under confidentiality agreement can access the live data in the database, the live servers, and the backups.
This information is subject to change in case of architectural change: if we decide to migrate the app to another provider, or if we decide to change databases inside of AWS, or if we decide to add/remove availability zones, or if we decide of another architecture. In any case, we will ensure that the data is encrypted at rest.
The data that the app stores is subject to constant changes depending on features we develop. For the moment, the data is:
The key and body of requirements,
The keys and titles of Jira issues,
The page IDs, and sometimes the page titles and page body, specifically if there is an error and the support might need to investigate,
Data which the users create in the app, notably reports they create, transformation templates, etc.,
The userKey associated with changes, which is an anonymized identifier provided to us by Atlassian,
The clientKey, which is the key of the instance, and its URL,
License information provided by Atlassian,
We only retrieve information made accessible to us by Atlassian or edit information that Atlassian allows us to, and we don't recoup this information with other sources.
