Challenges

  • Undertake a complex migration for a website that was multilingual, content-rich, and possesses complex functionality.
  • Rewrite several custom modules to align them with Drupal 9 standards.
  • Redevelop numerous functions and APIs that became deprecated in Drupal 9.

Goal

evidence

Bonamark needed to migrate their website from Drupal 7 to Drupal 9 to ensure reliable storage, availability, and security of their data in the long term.

The Attico International team was tasked with migrating all content types, content nodes with translations, users, user roles, and permissions from Drupal 7 to Drupal 9. To achieve this goal, we utilized the core Migrate module in Drupal 9 and contributed modules such as Migrate Tools and Migrate Plus.
