DrupalCon Los Angeles 2015: Double Header: RedHat.Com, Free Cloud Backups
About this talk
In this case study presented by Phase2, the speaker discusses the architectural design and implementation of a new pattern library for Red Hat, aimed at ensuring flexibility for integration with the existing Drupal 7 site and future-proofing for Drupal 8 and other branded sites. The session covers key strategies such as modular layouts, independent components, a smart "opt-in" context system, and the use of element queries, Susy grids, and Flexbox. Additionally, the talk highlights the automated systems for building, testing, and deploying components, as well as cross-team collaboration utilizing a common language and a fully documented style guide.
In the follow-up session, speakers Drew Gorton and Ronan Dowling from Pantheon introduce Backup and Migrate, a tool relied upon by over 300,000 websites for Drupal backups. They provide a hands-on demonstration of setting up backups and restorations for Drupal MySQL databases, code, and files, and discuss how every Drupal site can benefit from free, secure cloud backups through NodeSquirrel.
