Case Study: Octahedroid Enhances Performance through Strategic Migration to Drupal
Octahedroid recently published a case study in which the team assisted a prominent client in the tech industry, known for data analytics and AI solutions, in re-platforming their complex WordPress site to Drupal. As per the report, the migration resulted in enhanced performance and user experience.
With thousands of blogs, technical documentation, and a bustling forum, the client's website had outgrown WordPress, facing performance lags and challenges in content management. To address this, Octahedroid undertook a segmented migration approach, prioritizing a smooth, phased transition starting with the blog section.
Migrating the content to Drupal, Octahedroid used custom scripts to maintain data integrity while implementing a reverse proxy setup to keep parts of the site functional during the transition. This innovative approach minimized downtime and optimized site performance through the use of Gatsby JS, which enabled static page generation, significantly speeding up load times.
The transition to Drupal improved the editorial workflow, providing the client’s team with intuitive tools for efficient content management. Custom features such as content preview and multilingual support further aligned with the client’s global reach. The project stands as a model for seamless migration, balancing technological challenges with client-centric solutions and underscoring Octahedroid’s adaptability and innovation in high-stakes projects.
