MAKERS & BUILDERS - Migrating at Scale - How to not … fail!

This session focuses on preparing for the migration from Drupal 7 to Drupal 9, particularly for those managing multiple sites. The speaker shares insights gained from consolidating 50 sites at the University of Limerick into a single Drupal 9 platform, which involved migrating over 60,000 nodes across various content types and vocabularies. Key topics include effectively utilizing the Migrate API, the advantages of rebuilding over upgrading, and strategies for managing large-scale migrations, including transitioning from Paragraphs and Field Collections to Layout Builder. This talk is designed for developers with some migration experience who seek to enhance their understanding of migration at scale.
