Varnish Software’s Recap: Highlights from DrupalCon Singapore 2024
DrupalCon Singapore 2024 marked a significant milestone for the Drupal community in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region. After an eight-year hiatus, this event, organized on December 9th, attracted participants from across the region and provided a vibrant platform for networking, learning, and collaboration around the Drupal ecosystem.
As the first sponsor of DrupalCon Singapore, Varnish Software played a pivotal role in the event. Their presence included a well-curated exhibition stand featuring specialized offers, such as a tailored version of Varnish Enterprise designed to optimize Drupal performance. This initiative targeted mid-market users, bridging the gap between the open-source Varnish Cache and enterprise solutions. Thijs Feryn summarizes the company's experience and contributions at the event in a blog post.
The event also spotlighted Varnish Software's technical expertise through a presentation by Thijs Feryn and the distribution of signed copies of his book. Swag items, including notebooks and highly popular branded socks, further facilitated meaningful engagement with attendees.
The conference’s “Driesnote” keynote highlighted the then-upcoming launch of Drupal CMS. Drupal CMS aims to close the usability gap with competitors like WordPress through improved interfaces and modular features. Varnish Software’s longstanding involvement in the Drupal community, including contributions to official documentation and past sponsorships, underscores its commitment to supporting open-source innovation.
Looking ahead, Varnish Software plans to enhance its Drupal-focused solutions and actively participate in events, reflecting its dedication to empowering the ecosystem. Click here to read the complete post.
