Drupal FAQs

Drupal FAQs including which platform is right for your and how to get off of Drupal to save money and make your life easier.

Hosting Drupal with Kubernetes+

Modern Drupal Hosting with Fruition's Cloud Solution Fruition's Drupal hosting environment supports mission critical Drupal applications. Fruition is cloud agnostic to avoid cloud provider lock-in at AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud. By leveraging Kubernetes, we're able to distribute our own and our clients' workloads to the appropriate cloud provider. We place our primary workload on Google Cloud which allows us to scale for even the largest Drupal sites with many thousands of concurrent connections - all while maintaining security best practices and ensuring data integrity.

Is Drupal dying?+

Yes. Drupal is long in the tooth. It won't die for a really long time but it is well past middle age. We can help extend the life of your Drupal website but we would not recommend building a new site on Drupal. Our view on Drupal has changed rapidly over the last 18 months as new technologies have matured much faster than was expected.

Should I switch from Drupal to WordPress?+

It depends. If you're using Drupal just as a content management system then there are much better platforms out there one of which is WordPress. If you are using Drupal for business processes or other internal systems then it might make sense to continue supporting Drupal for years to come. We have a very important internal system that runs on Drupal. We have decided it does not make sense to refactor it because it just works. What's more important than the technology is making the right decision for your business and your use case. We've seen and worked through many different scenarios. We'd love to provide insight into what the right step is for your business.

Drupal End-of-Life Answers

Drupal 7 and Drupal 8 end-of-life support. With the recent release of Drupal 10 we're here to get your website on the right platform. Selecting the right upgrade path or technology transition is time-sensitive, but Fruition can guide your enterprise through the EOL process today. We’ll help you decide if you should move from Drupal 7 to 8, from Drupal 7 to 9 or 10, or if you would benefit from a custom solution using Symfony or standardized migrations to Wordpress. The correct solution largely depends on your current Drupal setup, its scale, and scope of the services that it runs.

Decoupled Drupal Website and App Development

Use Drupal as the brains for decentralized applications Fruition excels at complex decoupled applications that leverage Drupal as the core of the product. Many of our projects involve interacting with dozens (if not hundreds) of data sources, millions of users, hundreds of different levels of permissions, all while keeping the website and associated native applications loading fast, secure, and error-free. This new way of development, referred to as the JAMstack (JavaScript, APIs, Markup), enables full decoupling from monolithic applications to create insanely fast experiences for users at a massive scale.

Fruition is cloud agnostic to avoid cloud provider lock-in at AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud.

Drupal 9 and Drupal 10 Planning

There’s not always a clear path of migration between major Drupal releases. Depending on your site’s needs, you may need to move from Drupal 7 to Drupal 9 or move from Drupal 7 to another platform. We’re big believers in Drupal when it fits the problem that our clients are trying to solve. We’re even bigger believers in finding the right solution for your business.

Drupal 6 to Drupal 7 to Drupal 8 Migrations

Drupal 6 is now nearly 10 years past its end-of-life ("EOL") of Feb 24, 2016. Not too far off is the EOL for Drupal 7 and Drupal 8. Since Drupal 6 and 7 security updates are no longer released, it is critical that your website(s) migrate off of Drupal 6 as soon as possible. Fruition has performed 110+ Drupal 6 and Drupal 7 migrations. Drupal migrations to Wordpress, Drupal 7 or Drupal 8 can range from fairly simple to significant redevelopment projects. No matter the size of your project, we're committed to help guide you through.
