Managing D8 sites at Scale

Kevin Moll

For the last 2 years I've been helping my client, a large pharmaceutical company, build out their system for creating and managing Drupal 8 sites. They have 1000s of sites and domains, all of which we wanted to move to D8. Instead of moving all, or many sites right away, we spent time building our tools to create and manage these sites and start with a small number of "pilot" sites to help work out bugs and make the system stronger and more stable.

In this session we will outline what these tools are, how we built them, what we've learned up to this point and what our plans are going forward. I will also share a bit about our plans to open source much of what we've worked, and give back to the community what we've been working so hard to build.
