Case Study: University of Virginia achieves scalable, consistent web publishing with Acquia

University of Virginia - Customer Case Study

The University of Virginia (UVA) needed to replace a fragmented web content management setup that made it hard to maintain brand consistency, patch security, and scale from 15 to 100 sites. Content owners also had to deal with complex HTML/CSS and FTP workflows, making the University’s website difficult to manage across its many schools and departments. UVA chose Acquia and the Acquia Cloud Platform to simplify hosting and support its growing Drupal-based web presence.

With Acquia, UVA streamlined content creation and editing so nontechnical users could publish more easily, while gaining a more stable, scalable platform within a predictable budget. The University moved 15 initial sites in just six weeks, has since created hundreds of sites, and is preparing to use Acquia Site Factory to reach 600 sites next year as it retires legacy web servers.
