Overview for drupal

Your CMS REST API should be WordPress Compatible

The current world of computing owes a lot to Microsoft. They made a bold bet on the value of software over hardware over 30 years ago. The legacy of this carries on today with commodity hardware, but software itself has also largely become a commodity with Open Source.

Yet there is still something we could learn from IBM PC Compatible clones at this time of "decoupling" content management. The focus remains in breaking up Open Source products to pieces and then gluing those bits together with a specific type of REST glue.

Drupal 8 to accelerate Symfony adoption

The Drupal project announced way back in 2012 that they are adopting Symfony Components. At that stage the Symfony2 project was less than a year old. Today Symfony stands as one of the initiators of the contemporary PHP culture we have today, but the launch of Drupal in 2015 will push Symfony mainstream.

Technology Does Not Matter

I've had the privilege of attending some great events this year: WordCamp, PHP / eZ Publish Summer Camp and finally DrupalCon. These were all great experiences for a professional working with Web Content Management, but the most food for thought came from a much more modest event: A two hour breakfast seminar titled "The right content for the right context".
