What is Compass?

Today's developers face unprecedented complexity. More services and apps to manage, CI/CD, security, and observability data spread across multiple tools, and a growing list of responsibilities like security and compliance, keeping developers happy and engaged is an uphill battle. Compass from Atlassian eliminates the friction and helps software teams perform at their best.

One Centralized Software Catalog: At the core of Compass is a centralized software catalog that development teams and leads use to track and understand all their software components like services, libraries, and APIs. No more context switching between tools to see what services are compliant with the latest security standard, or to find relevant documentation for a new API. Visualize software dependencies and effortlessly link components to Jira issues to understand work impact and prioritize your backlog.

Optimize Service Health & Reliability: Delivering quality software requires continuous improvement. With Compass, apply customizable scorecards to measure and understand the operational health of your software. Get automatic DORA metrics

like deployment frequency and change failure, and pull in custom metrics from all your apps and tools. Build scorecards to track security compliance, quantify tech debt to quickly identify risks and prioritize improvements through automated workflows into Jira. Communicate standards across teams to raise the bar.

Connected with the Atlassian Ecosystem: Compass seamlessly integrates across Atlassian products. Connect Compass components to Jira issues to understand work impact and improve software health and engineering standards. Link Jira Service Management data for meaningful incident response and see Compass components in Bitbucket to understand the context of your code.

Extensibility Connects Your Entire Toolchain: Stop swimming in an ocean of fragmented data. Compass is fully extensible so you can integrate your tools for observability, CI/CD, source control, infrastructure provisioning, and more into one experience. View

critical service details like metrics, ownership, and dependencies - without leaving your happy place. Spend less time searching, more time building.

Automate Your Way to Production: Creating new services from scratch is painful and prone to error. With Compass templates, automate the setup of secure, compliant infrastructure and deployment pipelines. Provision cloud resources, configure monitoring, and more - all via reusable, code-defined "golden paths" aligned to your best practices.

Compass from Atlassian helps you spend less time wrestling with complexity and more time delivering quality software. Keep your developers in a state of flow, optimize service reliability, and

accelerate your path to production. Discover a transformative developer experience with Compass today.
