Drupal as the Hub: Syndicating and Distributing Content Across Complex Organizations
In today’s decentralized digital ecosystems, organizations often need to distribute content, from events and news to blogs and multimedia, across a wide array of platforms: multiple websites (Drupal and non-Drupal), mobile apps, third-party services, and more. But how can this be done in a way that is efficient, scalable, and easy to manage?
This session will explore how Drupal can serve as a powerful central hub for content syndication and distribution. We'll walk through a real-world architectural model for such a system, covering:
- How to ingest content from upstream sources into Drupal
- Editing, enriching, and categorizing content for redistribution
- Distributing content to a variety of endpoints via APIs or feeds
- Governance models and permissioning to support multiple teams and content creators
- Strategies for understanding organizational content needs and planning a syndication pipeline
- Deployment tactics for complex organizations (e.g., universities or nonprofits with many departments)
This talk is geared toward technical architects, developers, and digital leads working within large or distributed organizations. Whether you’re syndicating to a few microsites or orchestrating a multi-platform media strategy, this session will help you plan and build with clarity.
