Introduction
Xray for Jira Server/Data Center has been available in the Atlassian Marketplace since 2014.
Xray for Jira Cloud is an offshoot of the highly successful Xray for Jira Server. While there are many similarities between the two, there are some subtle differences in their features due to the unique nature of Jira Cloud.
These are, in fact, two distinct products with separate roadmaps and release cycles. However, our goal is to make Xray for Jira Cloud as similar to Xray for Jira Server/Data Center as possible, while improving it where we can.
