Case Study: Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater modernizes its multi-site Drupal platform with Eastern Standard

Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater migrates 1,000+ pages to Drupal 8 with Eastern Standard

The Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, a renowned performing arts organization, faced a significant technical challenge with the end-of-life of its Drupal 7 platform. They needed a partner to manage a complex migration, merging three separate legacy websites into a single, secure Drupal 8 infrastructure. Eastern Standard was engaged to execute this upgrade while ensuring the site remained a vital resource, especially during the pandemic when online offerings were crucial.

Eastern Standard successfully executed the multi-site merger and Drupal 8 upgrade, which included a substantial manual theme conversion and the migration of over 1,000 pages of content. They implemented a streamlined solution for the sub-sites and provided extensive training, setting the client up for long-term content management success. The project ensured future security, maintained a familiar user experience, and supported the organization's growth. Eastern Standard continues to provide ongoing website management and support, handling maintenance and implementing larger enhancements to improve user pathways.
