Hi @Divya Sriram do you know what timings are looking like on this? I am wanting to implement databases right not to cross-correlate services offered vs clients vs partners for our burgeoning agency. I'm on the waitlist and don't really want to pull the trigger on another solution that I then have to totally rebuild! :-)

Hey folks, thanks for the comments! We are working on rolling out our first cohort of Early Access Program (EAP) for our Alpha version soon. Feedback from this iteration will help us build this for all of Confluence in the future.
Great to hear how databases can add value and some great ideas on making it more powerful with 3P integrations. These are all things we're considering!
Looks promising. Is there an possibility that you can use the database to fill in an custom field? So for example have a list of all locations and addresses and that the name of the location can be selected in a drop-down field?
@Divya Sriram Can you give a rough estimate when Databases for Confluence will be accessible to a somewhat wider audience, e. g. as a public beta? If I understand your remark above correctly, those who registered for the waiting list but haven't heard back from Atlassian didn't make it into the EAP.
We're currently experimenting with using Jira and specially tailored issue types to create a business rules repository. But maybe using Databases for Confluence would be the more sound approach. But to know for sure, we'd need to obtain some insight into its feature set...
Sounds Interesting! Can external applications access Confluence Databases? Can we pull data from other sources (Say Amazon Connect for example) to populate the DB, so that the information is up to date and live i.e. when a configuration changes in the source the 'Confluence Document DB' is automatically updated and if the other way (bidirectional data binding) is possible too? Curious!
@Divya Sriram I have the following question: after roll-out, will this feature be available for Standard subscription users or only for Premium and Enterprise?

I was not familiar with Orderly but after watching the videos linked above, I'm really excited about this new feature. I use the Page Properties macros quite a bit but it's a pain to add new fields when we have a large number of pages. I am hoping the databases feature will make managing all of that information so much easier!

Hey everyone - thanks for your patience! We've just rolled out our early access program to a group of customers from the eap waitlist. We are actively working on rolling out the early access program for databases to more customers in the future.
We're focused on building the best functionality and user experience for databases, so we'll have details on all other things as we go!
Love the enthusiasm and eagerness to try out databases :)
