JIRA is a Java EE web-based bug tracking and issue tracking application developed by Atlassian Software Systems. Although JIRA is a commercial product, it is freely available to open source projects and non-profit institutions.

JIRA runs on many popular databases and operating systems (see Comparison of ticket-tracking systems).

Some features include customisable dashboards, saved searches (filters), statistics generation, RSS, email, and more.

The name comes from the original Japanese name for Godzilla, "Gojira"[1][2]. The developers of JIRA wanted something related to Bugzilla, and so they came up with Gojira. JIRA is therefore not an acronym.

Other Atlassian products are Atlassian Confluence, Atlassian Crowd and Atlassian Bamboo.
