# Quick Intro

Though Atlassian believes in Cloud platform as an ultimate destination for its products and services there are clients that decided to stick to Data Center platform due to objective reasons.

They might have started with Cloud to realize they need Data Center. In some rare case there might be also a need for reverse migration from Cloud.

In Release Management Apps we support both Cloud and Data Center versions of the App with approx 80%+ feature parity between the two.
