DrupalCon Prague 2013: DRUPAL IN THE CLOUD WITH OPENSHIFT & THE TIZEN PROJECT
About this talk
This talk focuses on deploying Drupal in the cloud using OpenShift, with Diane Mueller, a Cloud Evangelist from Red Hat, leading the discussion. She explains how Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) simplifies the process of launching Drupal in a cloud environment, making it easy for small to medium-sized businesses and consultancies to concentrate on development rather than backend complexities. The session includes a PaaS 101 overview for Drupal, insights into best practices for deploying Drupal 7 on the cloud, and a live demonstration of Red Hat's OpenShift PaaS.
In another session, Rob Vandenberg, President and CEO of Lingotek, discusses how the Tizen Project collaboratively developed their global community site on Drupal. He covers the challenges they faced regarding translation and how they integrated a cloud-based Translation Management System with Drupal to facilitate real-time collaboration among the international team, ultimately enabling them to translate the site into six different languages.
