JIRA Studio 2.0 has been released and is available to customers.

We are proud to announce that JIRA Studio now includes Atlassian's biggest product release to date, JIRA 4.0. JIRA 4.0 has a host of improvements, including a revamped user interface. Check out the Issues application in your JIRA Studio instance to start using the new features.

We've also taken the opportunity to upgrade the GreenHopper plugin in JIRA Studio to version 4.2. You will now have even more tools at your disposal to manage your agile projects, including epics, Kanban support, multiple filters in contexts and more.

Finally, the application suite in JIRA Studio has also been expanded in this release to include Atlassian's popular continuous integration build tool, Bamboo. JIRA Studio's Bamboo lets you run your builds in the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) so you can scale your builds on demand to support your development team's needs.
