Regarding project

sai kaushik giddalur June 20, 2019

Hi Everyone

I got confused over here, as a Jira user switch to only project/product per jira instance

is this a best practice or should we have multiple projects within one project

 

Thanks

Jira does not nest projects, you can't have one within another.  If you need to break up a big project into bits, but still keep it in one place, then use components to separate the issues into groups.

It is usually better to align projects with products when your products have versioned releases.

I have two cases

1 Single projects

   Project 1 (UI)

   project 2 (database)

   Project 3 (Infrastructure)

2 Multiple projects into single project

   Mixing all above 3 projects and creating it into a single project

Which case is better and why, if you have any documentation regarding this it would help me more

Thanks

You're mixing apples and oranges. JIRA instances are installs of JIRA that have one or more projects. Projects have issue types, workflows, screens, etc. You can't have nested projects
