World Tour of Drupal Architecture Solutions
You’ve likely heard a lot about “Headless Drupal,” but it remains just one of many approaches to building a Drupal 8 site. Drupal can now be used on several different roles, from the front-end, to the back-end, to everything in between. But what solution type best supports your business goals?
Building on Tobby’s popular “Drupal Is Not Your Website” talk from previous years, we will give a “tour of solution options,” providing in-depth explanations about the different roles Drupal can play in your larger content management framework.
Should Drupal be your...
-

-

-

Furthermore, we’ll dive into the business logic needed to inform your architecture solution choice (and the ways it will impact your investment long-term!). And as a bonus, we’ll explain the implications of your solution type on your technical strategy and development team.
In this session, you will learn:
-

-
The pros and cons of each solution type
-
Strategies for incorporating Drupal into a custom stack or environment
