We Migrated to Drupal from SharePoint: A Customer Story and Strategies for Success

Joe Herres

This session will walk through our customer’s journey from an outdated yet extensive SharePoint 2013 CMS implementation to an Aquia-hosted Drupal implementation. We will talk about the considerations that were made for data mappings from one environment to the other and the challenges and solutions we came across. This session will dig deep into the technical solutions of pulling the data out of SharePoint, manipulating the data so it can be correctly ingested into Drupal, as well as consuming data from other external sources utilizing the Migrate Plus module. The technologies covered in this session include SharePoint, Drupal, PowerShell, Azure SQL, and very specifically Migrate YML.
