About this event

It starts with Trust. As more and more personal information goes digital and into the cloud, privacy, transparency, and overall trust are more important than ever before. Atlassian’s serverless app development platform is designed for building secure, reliable, and scalable apps. Forge makes it possible to build a fully-functional app in just a few hours, with hosting, multiple development environments, and API authentication built-in. Forge can be used to create custom apps and integrations or apps distributed through the Atlassian Marketplace.

Forge apps are fully hosted by Atlassian. When you build a Forge app, Atlassian automatically creates your development, staging, and production environments. You can write a single function and it will run, significantly reducing the amount of code needed to write and operate an app.

This was designed to make operating your app easier and more secure, and to save you time and running costs.

Software constantly changing, with new vulnerabilities created frequently and discovered eventually
