There are some improvements done in the mobile app. I do use the Android app for Jira, it is simple and works fine but yes I would always appreciate new features. There are new incident management capabilities to help users manage the tickets by marking them as "major" from the app, there are new gadgets in the iOS app, push notifications and some performance improvements.

Atlassian outage report

So after the infamous outage in early April Atlassian has given an update that they have restored all the data. If you want to know more about the data management then you can read it here, where they have mentioned how they mentioned the outages, recovery and business continuity.

Stay on top released on Jira Cloud

This is Sparxsys app which I was working on lately. Simple app made using Forge but I am happy that I managed to find time and also publish it.

Atlassian Response on The Jira Guy blog about Data Center

Rodney wrote a blog post about Atlassian lack of enthusiasm about Jira Data Center in the recent Atlassian event which you can read here. Atlassian responded with this post on the community reassuring us that they still have some plans for Jira Data Center. If you are like me and love Jira on prem version then you would find this interesting. I highly recommend you to read these posts.

Ok that is it for this week. If you are new here then you can subscribe to my YouTube channel to stay up to date with what is happening in Atlassian ecosystem and I make daily videos on Atlassian tools like Jira, Automation, ScriptRunner to share knowledge.

Speaking at AUG Pune, 23rd August 2020 - ScriptRunner for Jira

This is Pune which is a really beautiful city near Bombay, there was a time when I used to travel quite a lot in India. Many years ago I started providing consultation around Atlassian tools. I consider myself lucky that I got the opportunity to travel and also to work with many companies across India.

I was hoping to travel to India this month but as we all know things are different all across the world. AUG Pune invited me to speak and do a session. Although I would have loved to do that in person but I will settle with an online session this year.

Topic: Improve Jira Ticket Quality with Dynamic Fields in ScriptRunner
Date: 23rd August 2020

NavIC - Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System ravisagar Sat, 03/14/2020 - 16:01

NavIC is in news these days because of the phones getting released that supports it.

Let us understand what is NavIC?

Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System.
Developed by ISRO.
Operational Name: Navigation with Indian Constellation.
Phones with compatible chipsets will use NavIC as the first preference before using GPS.
It is a regional navigational system. Only works 1,500 km (930 mi) around India.

There are plans to expand the NavIC system by increasing its constellation size from 7 to 11

Benefits of NavIC

GPS is not accurate (20m), NavIC will be super accurate (5-10m) because NavIC has dual frequency (S and L bands).
Much faster than GPS
Focussed for Indian region
