Pantheon has announced an upcoming webinar titled "Streamlining Content Architecture and Publishing in Drupal," scheduled for Thursday, April 4. The webinar aims to shed light on the complexities and solutions associated with large-scale content migration and site reorganization, taking the case study of the Exploratorium's website overhaul as a prime example.

The Exploratorium, recognized as one of the initial 600 websites to emerge on the internet, faced significant challenges in managing and organizing 30 years of diverse content. This content, created by many editors and developers, was scattered across various platforms, including Drupal 7, static websites, and obsolete Flash implementations, leading to a disorganized digital presence affectionately termed a 'Frankensite.' The webinar will explore the journey of transforming this fragmented site into a cohesive, well-structured digital entity.
