March 1st Meeting: Automating and Accelerating Drupal Migration Anyone?

We encourage users to post events happening in the community to the community events group on https://www.drupal.org.

Myself and Heron Heron Ordoñez of Nvidia are available to present our notes at the March 1st meeting on how we were able to achieve a complex Drupal 6 to 7 migration with roughly two minutes of website downtime. These concepts should apply to any D2D migration.

We'd be covering the migration from both a Drupal standpoint, and what was needed on the server side to achieve this near 100% automation. The Drupal 7 site architecture was built from scratch during the migration process using a script and features/custom modules. We'd' also be discussing how to use multithreading with Drupal.

Is this something that would interest the group?

Hi Dan,

Please put a comment on the event thread:

https://groups.drupal.org/node/508964

so people know this is here.

We already have a couple other possible topics in the comments, but not 100% sure that Darryl Norris is going to present his theming stuff.

I'd like to hear about this migration work, but I will likely be missing tomorrow night because I'm sick.

Thanks,
Kristen
