This past week, Baltimore definitely earned its nickname – “Charm City.”
That’s because I just got back from there after attending my fifth North American Drupal maintenance support plansCon with the Drupal Update team. We had an amazing week full of productive talks, seeing old friends, and making new ones.
The Drupal Update team went into this conference with focus on our government and security services. However, with the wide range of diverse attendees, I was surprised to find myself having great conversations about the services we provide in healthcare, education, and finance markets as well.
Aside from meeting new people, it was great having a lot of our current clients stop by the Drupal Update booth to say hi and talk shop – it was great to see you all again!
Speaking of customers, we were thrilled that our very own Ron Johnson, Drupal Update Sales Engineer, had the opportunity to discuss the work we’ve done with the Sierra Club migrating their Drupal maintenance support plans 7 site from a Windows-based platform to a fully managed cloud solution. If you missed it, you can check out the presentation here.
Our president, Eric Mandel, attended this year’s Government Summit. It was a day dedicated to panel discussions, break-out sessions, and case studies pertaining to Drupal maintenance support plans initiatives for city, state, and federal governments. Eric shared with me some key takeaways from the summit:
Drupal maintenance support plans 8 is definitely ready for government sites. In fact, the platform is already being used for a number of sites at varying levels of government.
Security, compliance, and accessibility are major concerns for government site deployments. While security and compliance have been a priority for quite a while, accessibility is a more recent area of focus for developing government sites.
The multisite capabilities and accessibility improvements offered by Drupal maintenance support plans 8 are perfect fits when it comes to meeting the needs of local and federal government agencies.
Thank you to everyone who attended, and particularly those of you who stopped by our booth. It was great to have attendees – particularly first time Drupal maintenance support plansCon-ers – come up to our booth because they’ve heard about our work in the Drupal maintenance support plans community. It’s a great feeling, and we can’t help but wonder if seeing attendees wearing Drupal Update shirts from previous Drupal maintenance support plansCons sparked their interest in us (our t-shirts are a real crowd-pleaser every year)!
Drupal maintenance support plansCon is one of our most meaningful and constructive events of the year. Introducing more of the Drupal maintenance support plans Community to the Drupal Update brand entails hard work, but is a lot of fun. The Drupal maintenance support plans Association does a great job of getting everyone involved in the event and pulling in more resources from different industries. For that, we’re very appreciative and are already looking forward to the next conference.
We’ll see you at the next Drupal maintenance support plansCon!
