Panasonic: Serving Diverse Business Needs With One Drupal Platform

What do you do when you have over a dozen seemingly unique business units each, spinning up their own microsites using different and disparate technologies to meet their business models and customer segments? Panasonic adopted Drupal 8 and an API-first approach so that their teams could respond more rapidly to business needs without having to resort to “quick and dirty” solutions.

This session will discuss some of the business challenges that Panasonic North America faced with their previous platforms, and will share how switching to Drupal 8 is key to streamlining their digital efforts. This session will discuss the following topics:

1. What an API-first approach is and how it differs from traditional digital development approaches
2. How an API-first approach can help organizations better achieve their digital goals
3. How Drupal 8 creates more scalable platforms and solves governance problems
4. How Drupal 8 consolidates various technologies to help organizations increase their digital impact

The session will include real examples from Panasonic’s own experience, and will share the ways that Drupal 8 has served as their digital onramp and helped them transform their digital presence.
