Learn to transform traditional Drupal deployments into cloud-native applications using Kubernetes container orchestration in this 26-minute conference talk. Explore how containerization addresses the limitations of conventional hosting approaches when dealing with complex digital experiences and unpredictable traffic patterns. Discover the core components of Kubernetes architecture and their specific roles in production Drupal environments, including the design principles for stateful versus stateless components within the Drupal ecosystem. Master practical implementation strategies through step-by-step containerization of existing Drupal applications and configuration management across multiple environments using ConfigMaps and Secrets. Gain insights into performance and cost optimization techniques, including horizontal pod autoscaling based on real-time metrics, resource right-sizing methods that balance performance with infrastructure costs, and approaches to reduce environmental impact through efficient resource utilization. Understand how to design scalable, resilient Drupal architectures using Kubernetes primitives and implement CI/CD pipelines optimized for containerized deployments. Develop infrastructure-as-code practices that ensure consistency across development, staging, and production environments while learning strategies to optimize resource utilization and reduce the carbon footprint of Drupal infrastructure.
