BuyPlane — Self-hosted project management for the Middle East
SELF-HOSTED PROJECT MANAGEMENT · SAUDI ARABIA & GCC

Your data. Your servers. Your rules.

BuyPlane deploys, secures, and operates Plane.so entirely inside your own infrastructure — on-premises, region-hosted, or fully air-gapped. Nothing leaves your perimeter unless you decide it does.

Everything inside the dashed line lives on infrastructure you control. External access is blocked by default — nothing syncs outward unless you configure it to.

WHY NOW

Jira Data Center goes read-only on March 28, 2029.

Atlassian has confirmed the wind-down of Data Center in favor of cloud-only. For organizations that can't move project data to a foreign-hosted cloud — banks, ministries, defense-adjacent entities — that timeline forces a decision most vendors aren't built to answer.

DEC 2025
Marketplace closes to new Data Center apps.
MAR 2026
No new Data Center licenses sold to new customers.
MAR 2028
Last date existing customers can renew or expand licenses.
MAR 2029
Full end of life. Environments become read-only.
TWO WAYS TO RUN A PROJECT TOOL

The cloud isn't a compliance strategy.

Most project management vendors solve for convenience. When the requirement is control — over where data sits, who can reach it, and what an auditor can verify — the calculation changes.

STANDARD CLOUD SAAS

Convenient, until it isn't

  • ✕ Data resides on infrastructure you don't own or see
  • ✕ Region of storage is often undisclosed or unchangeable
  • ✕ Compliance depends on the vendor's certifications, not yours
  • ✕ Air-gapped or offline deployment isn't possible
  • ✕ Exit means exporting what the vendor lets you export
BUYPLANE, SELF-HOSTED

Built for organizations that must know where data lives

  • ✓ Deployed inside your own infrastructure or approved region
  • ✓ You choose the physical location, down to the data center
  • ✓ Governance and audit logs meet your compliance framework, not ours
  • ✓ Fully air-gapped deployment available for classified or offline environments
  • ✓ You hold the infrastructure — nothing to migrate away from
DEPLOYMENT PATHS

Three ways to keep control. Pick the one your compliance team already trusts.

Private Cloud, region-locked

Plane runs on infrastructure BuyPlane provisions and manages inside a data center you approve — typically Riyadh or Jeddah — with a dedicated instance that is never shared.

  • ✓ Fastest path to production, fully managed by BuyPlane
  • ✓ Data residency locked to your chosen region
  • ✓ Patched, backed up, and monitored on your behalf
# deployment.yaml
region: ksa-riyadh-1
tenancy: dedicated
managed_by: buyplane
status: provisioned

Self-hosted, on your own servers

BuyPlane installs and configures Plane directly on your existing infrastructure — your data center, your virtual machines, your firewall rules — and remains on as the operating partner.

  • ✓ Runs entirely within your existing network perimeter
  • ✓ Integrates with your identity provider and access policies
  • ✓ No third party ever holds a copy of your data
# deployment.yaml
host: customer-infrastructure
network: internal-only
access: client-managed-idp
status: installed

Air-gapped, fully offline

For classified or high-sensitivity environments, Plane is deployed with zero external network dependency — no telemetry, no update pings, no outbound calls of any kind.

  • ✓ Zero outbound connections, verified at the network layer
  • ✓ Updates delivered and installed manually, on your schedule
  • ✓ Suited to defense-adjacent and classified environments
# deployment.yaml
network: none
outbound_calls: 0
updates: manual
status: sealed
HOW WE OPERATE

Four things we don't compromise on.

01

Sovereignty

Your data stays inside your perimeter, always — by architecture, not by policy document.

02

Clarity

We tell you exactly where your data lives and who can reach it. No vague cloud language.

03

Craft

Implementation done properly — documented, accountable, delivered on the date we said.

04

Regional fluency

Built for how Saudi and GCC enterprises and government bodies actually procure and comply.

Let's talk about where your data lives.

Book a short call with an engineer — not a salesperson — and walk away with a deployment path that fits your compliance requirements.
