Jira is a widely used project management and issue-tracking platform developed by Atlassian. Postgres, on the other hand, is a highly robust and scalable open-source relational database management system. It supports a wide range of data types and advanced features.

With Erathos, your Jira data is loaded into Azure SQL Server already normalized into relational tables, ready to power Power BI reports or internal applications already running in the Microsoft ecosystem.

### What Jira data does Erathos sync with PostgreSQL?

The integration automatically syncs key Jira objects:

- **Projects** status, assignees, dates, and settings
- **Issues and subtasks** priority, status, estimates, and assignees
- **Sprints** dates, velocity, and planning data
- **Members** users, roles, and workload
- **Comments** history of discussions and decisions
- **Custom fields** custom properties and tags configured by the team

### Why sync Jira with Azure SQL Server?

In Azure SQL Server, you integrate Jira data into the Microsoft ecosystem, using Power BI for executive dashboards and Azure Data Factory to orchestrate broader data pipelines.

### How it works

Erathos connects to Jira via its official API and syncs your data incrementally: only new or updated records are processed in each run, keeping pipelines fast and Azure SQL Server costs predictable. You choose the sync frequency (ranging from every 5 minutes to daily), the objects to sync, and the destination dataset. Every run is logged with full observability: execution time, rows processed, errors with context, and instant alerts via Slack or email if anything goes wrong.

## Jira data in Azure SQL Server in minutes

### Ready-to-use Jira connector

Connect Jira to Azure SQL Server and automatically export data. Centralize project management data for analysis — no spreadsheets, no scripts.

### Full control over your Jira pipelines

Set the sync schedule, frequency, and type at the table level. Configure sync frequency and type per table. Erathos uses intelligent UPSERT on Azure SQL Server — ensuring data consistency and native integration with Power BI and the Microsoft ecosystem.

### End-to-end observability

Stop finding out about Jira failures only after the business team complains. Every run is logged with execution time, rows processed, and error context. Automatic alerts via Slack, Discord, or email the moment something goes off track — so your data stays fresh for analysis.
