Golem’s recent blog post dives into how cloud integration will enhance Drupal websites in 2025. It outlines the advantages and trade-offs of using AWS, Azure, and GCP as hosting platforms for Drupal-based applications. Each provider offers reliable infrastructure, scalability, and performance improvements.

AWS is praised for services like EC2 and RDS, enabling high-traffic handling and robust backup features. However, its steep learning curve may be a challenge for beginners. Azure, Microsoft's cloud platform, offers smooth integration with other Microsoft services. It’s user-friendly, supports PHP well, and has global data centres to reduce latency. Its CDN speeds up site access, though it provides fewer tools compared to AWS. GCP, from Google, is highlighted for its reliability, auto-scaling, and integration with machine learning tools like BigQuery. It's widely used in sectors like healthcare for its security and data-handling precision.

Golem advises developers to choose based on project needs, budget, and team expertise. Running pilot tests across platforms is a suggested strategy to find the best fit. The post presents a balanced view of each platform’s role in building high-performing, cloud-integrated Drupal sites.
