Why Drupal? Web Content Management • Customers include The White House, ebay, The Economist, CERN & Ubuntu. • Alfresco Partners & Team. • Gained momentum in 2005. • 18000+ modules (at Oct 2012). • Used largely on a LAMP stack, also works with IIS, Postgre. SQL, SQLite.

The process. The 4 pillars of our solution: • Simplicity. • Responsive design. • Alfresco = documents, Drupal = Web pages. • Translation automation.

Considerations moving from AVM to Drupal • Migrating content types. • Sandbox? What sandbox? • Where to store files (PDFs, Word, PPT etc)?

Considerations moving from AVM to Drupal Lingotek Translation Acquia Drupal 7 Alfresco Enterprise 4. 0
