Atlas, Data Lake&Anaytics and Automation for Confluence – introducing the freshest product news from Atlassian Summit 2022

Alice Bakhoff

NB! Please note that Atlassian products are developed rapidly. The product features listed in the article may change over time.

Atlassian Summit 2022 took place once again in Las Vegas and as a digital experience at the beginning of April.

Talk topics like Agile&DevOps, ITSM, teamwork culture and open work management were intertwined with fresh and exciting product news.

Let's take a look at what we learned!

Atlas (beta) - teamwork directory

Atlas equips teams with a common vocabulary to openly communicate and get a shared understanding of the context of their work.

Atlas enables every team to communicate openly and get answers to questions like:

  • what are we doing and why?
  • how's it going?
  • who's working on it?

Team alignment starts with a shared understanding of what is done, by who and why. Atlas gives every project a "homepage" providing context on the project goals and what success looks like.

Project homepage sections can display the project's status and deadline, project lead, team members, goals, related projects and smart links.

There is no more fear of missing out with the Atlas feed, as it enables us to share and stay on top of the latest updates.

Atlas feed limits status updates to 280 characters, and teams can also embed videos, images and gifs to create more engaging content.

Every Monday, users will see a personalized digest of updates on the projects and goals they have chosen to follow.

In addition to your Atlas feed, users will get a personalized digest delivered directly to email, Slack, or Microsoft Teams at the start of every week.

Atlas syncs with popular identity providers like Okta, and every individual has their profile, which gives a snapshot of who they are, what they're working on, and how they fit in.

Team profiles provide an aggregated view of who's on the team, what they're working and where the work is happening.

Soon, you'll be able to view and post updates to projects from linked epics inside Jira Software.

Atlas has been in private beta under the name Team Central for the past year, and Atlassian is actively improving it.

Atlassian has built Data Lake on the enterprise-grade trusted Atlassian platform to ensure privacy and security.

At launch, Atlassian Data Lake will include data from Jira Software and Jira Service Management. Still, Atlassian is working to bring all of the data across all Atlassian products into it.

Atlassian built Analytics using the technology from Chartio, a cloud-based visualization and analytics solution.

The seamless connection to the Atlassian Data Lake allows users to access data in a variety of ways.
