Scarlet :: Scalable, Redundant, Cloud Enabled JIRA

Scarlet is a custom edition of Atlassian JIRA for demanding customers, to scale both vertically and horizontally. It provides improved performance and solves the limitation of standalone JIRA to be deployed on a single node, and applies some more performance improvements.

We are an Atlassian partner specialized in integrating Atlassian solutions for demanding environments, mission critical deployments and high-performance settings.

We have been deploying Atlassian products in environments with millions of issues and thousands of users, and we are the partner choice for large-scale deployment and integrations.

Why did we make it?

With customers across Europe having JIRA instances with more than 20,000 users, 50 million tickets and complex workflows with an appetite for performance, failover and high availability the challenge was too attractive for us to pass.

What's under the hood?

While the first version of Scarlet was based on Terracotta, the new one has a completely new backend based on Infinispan, taking Jira where it has never been before: both clustered environments and cloud ones, either public or private.

The new Scarlet enables JIRA caching with Infinispan, tunes Lucene to the extreme leveraging the latest and greatest features of this powerful search engine and removes the design barriers to multi-node clustering. All easy to deploy and manage!
