Architecting Drupal on the AWS Cloud for Federal Websites

In architecting a federally-focused Drupal website, it is as equally important to examine site architecture, as it is the back-end system architecture. In this presentation, we will take a deep dive into the infrastructure components that compose the Drupal system architecture and best practices for deploying your site in the cloud. Topics covered by this presentation include:

•    Highly Available & Scalable System Architecture
•    Caching and the Role of Content Delivery Networks (CDN)
•    Performance Testing & Optimizations
•    Security Considerations
•    Drupal Platform Solutions
