Data Center to Cloud migration is the perfect time to clean house and start fresh in the Cloud

You’ve made the move to Atlassian Cloud. Don’t bring the baggage and risks of outdated pages, stale Jira projects, and unmanaged attachments with you. Content Retention Manager helps you establish clear content governance from the start, so your Cloud Confluence and Jira sites stay clean, compliant, and AI-ready.
‍
Once you transition to the Cloud, you gain access to Rovo AI and other AI tools can help accelerate you from the start. But if your content hasn't been cleaned by this stage, it will reveal everything, whether you intend it to or not. Decades of pages, attachments, research notes, client data, sensitive content, work items, and compliance evidence hidden in the depths of your Confluence and Jira will suddenly become prominent with Atlassian Rovo and other Cloud-based AI tools. Furthermore, the storage costs and performance of your cloud products are affected by each gigabyte of legacy and unnecessary content. Every unnecessary artifact increases legal discovery and risk/compliance in the cloud. Without structured retention, even AI summarization and search tools can bring outdated, non-compliant material to the forefront, leading to cognitive decline in LLMs, reduced ROI, and slower decision-making.

Easy content governance

Content Retention Manager is your vital tool to oversee and execute the document lifecycle, ensuring that information is stored, maintained, and disposed of in a compliant focused manner and according to your defined retention policies.

Cloud migration solves hosting, not hygiene

Moving to Atlassian Cloud solves infrastructure headaches, but not information sprawl. Without clear retention policies, your fresh environment can quickly fill up with old, redundant, or sensitive data, eroding search quality, performance, and compliance posture. Worst of all, the Enterprise AI tools you want to make sense of all this information will include unwanted content in the context windows and results. Opus Guard helps you define the lifecycle rules your Cloud instance should have launched with, keeping it organized, compliant, and ready for Enterprise AI tools like Atlassian Rovo and Glean.

The Governance Layer Built for Atlassian Cloud

Content Retention Manager Runs on Atlassian, directly on your Atlassian Cloud to give you continuous visibility and control over your content lifecycle without IT complexity or data egress to third party hosts.

How Content Retention Manager works for you

FAQ's

How does data retention reduce risk during SOC2 framework audits?

A good data retention management practice enforces policy-driven retention and defensible deletion directly inside your company's Atlassian Cloud applications. This means aged content is either archived or securely removed according to rules you define, with audit-ready reports showing what was kept or deleted and when. By keeping only records within mandated retention windows, you lower legal exposure, discovery scope, and data breach surface area during regulatory review.

How does Opus Guard improve Atlassian Rovo and other AI tools like Glean?

AI tools like Rovo and Glean rely on clean context. By removing stale or conflicting data, Opus Guard ensures these tools deliver sharper, more accurate answers, improving trust and adoption across your organization.

Does data retention affect our AI and analytics initiatives?

Old or redundant data can pollutes AI training and RAG context windows, producing inaccurate or non-compliant generative outputs. By keeping your Atlassian apps' content current and policy-scoped, Content Retention Manager helps teams feed cleaner, time-bounded information into internal AI tools. Overall this both improves relevance while also cutting token and indexed object overages charges.

What’s the business impact on storage and backup costs?

Confluence and Jira Cloud store every item, every attachment and page version, all of which should be backed up in at least three versions in at least two different locations. Automating retention reduces source content being backed up and in turn reduces backup object-storage growth, resulting in measurable performance on the primary SaaS apps and measurable savings on the backup tiers. Most customers see double-digit percentage reductions in backup volume once redundant, expired, or ownerless content is removed.
