Drupal Deployment Made Simple: ORION WEB's Guide with Platform.sh

Staff Reporter

The fourth episode of the LocalGov Drupal tutorial series shifts the focus to deploying websites to the cloud using Platform.sh. This step-by-step guide walks users through the process, starting with selecting a hosting provider based on performance, scalability, and reliability. The tutorial specifically utilizes Platform.sh, a robust hosting solution for web applications and content management systems like Drupal.

The narrative covers creating a new Platform.sh project, configuring it, and seamlessly pushing code changes to both Bitbucket and Platform.sh repositories. The manual steps required for a smooth deployment are highlighted, including adding and enabling modules, configuring services and applications, and updating relevant files.
