Drupal 9 Migrations & Upgrades
Appnovation was selected to partner with Bay Area Rapid Transit for our website migration project from a proprietary CMS to Drupal. It was a very complex migration and we had a short time-box. Despite the overwhelming scheduling challenges, Appnovation completed amazing work: the quality of the code, the thoroughness of the testing, the high velocity in turnaround was incredible to watch.

Drupal 7 and 8 Nears The End...
Drupal 7 will reach its end of life on January 5, 2025 and Drupal 8 is no longer supported. Kickstart your migration discussions with us for a seamless transition.
If your website is still on Drupal 7 or 8, you need to plan for an upgrade to Drupal 9 immediately. Without the right support, you could be risking putting your site into a lockdown/feature freeze mode. This means no more core updates or module updates as the Drupal community focuses on Drupal 9. The good news is that if your enterprise is already on Drupal 8, the upgrade path is relatively simple. If your company is currently on Drupal 7, there is a direct upgrade path to Drupal 9 through the core Migrate module but it will require more work, depending on the complexity of your site. It's also important to note that the end of life for Drupal 7 is on November 2022 and Drupal 8 already ended November 2021.
