This document discusses best practices for building Drupal distributions. It recommends including responsive themes, faceted search, batteries included functionality, and demo content. It also addresses challenges like maintaining interoperable features, default configurations, and sustainability. Customizing the installation process, improving the admin experience, and using panels are also suggested to create a better distribution.
Leading Practices for Distribution SuccessNet at Work
As the pace of change in business accelerates—especially for those still relying on aged, on-premise ERP systems, wholesale distributors are struggling to keep up. Today’s leading distribution businesses need a proven solution that can be deployed quickly, predictably, and affordably, setting you up for growth and success.
How often do you learn that you must deliver a new capability or correct a network issue and it needed to be implemented yesterday? Do you get extra resources to make it happen? Do these asks cut into your personal time?
Now, imagine a world where you can not only easily execute these asks but one where you can also prove to your leaders how the network can be a competitive advantage and help your company make money.
The latest World Wide Technology (WWT) TEC37 webinar focuses on the operational challenges in the data center that can be addressed by software-defined networking (SDN), including how WWT is implementing SDN, as well as the cost benefits of adopting a programmable network.

How to consolidate Citrix Monitoring in a Single Pane of GlasseG Innovations
A recent survey by eG Innovations and xenappblog found that 68% of organizations are using 2-5 different tools for monitoring and managing their Citrix infrastructure. Multiple monitoring tools make it expensive to operate and troubleshoot IT infrastructure issues. Furthermore, a lot of manual effort is required to diagnose and fix performance issues.
Join Richard Faulkner, Enterprise Solutions Architect and CTP from Conversant Group, and John Worthington, Director of Customer Success at eG Innovations, and learn how you can get a single-pane-of-glass view of your Citrix infrastructure – from the client end to the virtual desktops/apps and even the backend applications.
See how you can:
--Monitor and get proactive alerts on the experience seen by Citrix users
--Track the performance of every layer and every tier of your Citrix infrastructure: NetScalers, StoreFronts, Virtual apps and desktops, WEM, PVS, License servers, etc.
--Troubleshoot in a single click and identify where the root-cause of a problem is: network, or storage, or virtualization, or the Citrix stack?
--Get insights to right-size and optimize your Citrix deployment

Upgrading to the next major Drupal release can be complex—even stressful. In this webinar, we’ll show you how to take the pain out of the process and get your Drupal 6, 7, or 8 site up and running on D9—the latest and greatest Drupal release.
Over the past year, the Drupal community has focused on improving the Drupal user experience, making Drupal more friendly to a less technical user-base and rolling those improvements into Drupal 7. Join Dries Buytaert, the original creator and project lead for the Drupal open source web publishing and collaboration platform and Jeff Noyes, Acquia's director of user experience and contributor to the D7UX team contributor, for a one-hour tour of the new Drupal 7 usability features and the driving forces behind them. This will be the first in a series of Drupal 7 Webinars hosted by Dries this year.

Upgrading to the next major Drupal release can be complex - even stressful. In this webinar, we’ll show you how to take the pain out of the process, and get your Drupal 6, 7, or 8 site up and running on D9 - the latest and greatest Drupal release.
During this webinar, we’ll share tips on environment setup, explain how to automate the script process, and discuss the overlaps between D8 and D9. We’ll also walk you through the out-of-the-box D9 migration process.
We’ll be joined by our partners at Mediacurrent, who will share their recognized Drupal expertise and thought leadership. They’ll offer insight on identifying, tracking, and fixing common accessibility mistakes in a Drupal upgrade. And, they’ll explain the best ways to prep for a transition, including setting strategy, budgeting, and identifying KPIs to effectively demonstrate ROI.
We’ll wrap it all up with a look at some new Acquia tools that can streamline and simplify the migration process even further.
With this much information and expertise to gain, this is certain to be a can’t-miss event for any Drupal professional.
One Drupal to rule them all - Drupalcamp Londonhernanibf
Dries famous sentence (http://buytaert.net/one-drupal-to-rule-them-all) is becoming a reality for many organisations from small shops to the enterprise space. More and more stakeholders are following the idea of standardising their online presence in Drupal and leverage the same code and infrastructure amongst their different sites. What they are seeking is a drastic reduction in the time needed to create, launch and configure a Drupal site at the same time that they reduce the maintenance effort of the whole sites' network.
To achieve it, a drastic change needs to happen on the standardisation of development processes, more strict control of the overall architecture while supporting new changes and requirements, and repeatable and trustable deployment process to avoid the opposite pitfall of "one site to break them all".
In this session we will look to what needs to be thought when creating such an architecture from the development process to the infrastructure to host the different environments needed. We will look at different solutions that allow maintain these sites factories and walk you through several architectures explaining their advantages and differences.
Finally, we will look in detail to Acquia's Cloud Site Factory, a fully-hosted SaaS solution that allows organisations to quickly deploy and manage websites by the hundreds. Pre-define site templates, create new sites in a single click, manage roles and permissions across sites and connect to existing analytics and data systems.
Drupal is the premiere CMS, used by thousands of businesses, public agencies, and schools. Drupal is changing to accommodate new web technologies such as mobile. This touches upon how Drupal works for mobile.

11. Installation profile
- The heart of a Drupal installation
- Enables the basic (or not so basic)
set of modules, sets the default theme
- Can add any number of pages and tasks
to the installer, and alter its appeariance
- Can implement hooks
15. Features – reality
Can't depend one on another.
Not uninstallable.
Not interoperable (across distributions)
Not optimized for “default configuration”.
What to do about default content?
16. Default configuration
Installed initially, restorable.
Modifiable by the user (everything can be
deleted, export not marked as “overridden”)
Possible solution:
http://drupal.org/project/defaultconfig
17. Default content
Easy to create / import, easy to remove.
http://drupal.org/project/defaultcontent
deprecated in favor of “”UID Features”
DIY?
Migrate
18. Community problems
Dealing with (nearly) abandoned projects.
Dealing with patches
Dealing with old releases
19. Handling updates
Distributions need to be updated as a whole
Hide update status for included projects
The need for more frequent releases
Security updates need to be fast ( < 48h).
20. Support and maintenance
- Get off your island.
- Separate bug reports from the support requests
- Send the support requests to StackExchange
- Send any relevant bug reports to contribs
- How can we keep this sustainable?
21. Sustainability
- Distributions are expensive
- Currently mostly a lead generation tool.
- Low usage:
Drupal core installs: 869 852
Commerce Kickstart installs: 7 041
Next 10 distributions combined: 4300
Distributions make up 1.2% of all Drupal installs
- App stores?
31. Fixing the admin UX
Don't be afraid to create a custom theme
Or use ours: Shiny
Views & VBO for all listings (admin_views)
Date
Chosen / Select2
Module Filter
Backport, Special Menu Admin
33. Responsive design
Being responsive is no longer optional.
Start with a base theme:
- Omega (Commerce Kickstart, Recruiter)
- Adaptivetheme (Commons)
- Zen
- Admin pages are not responsive
http://drupal.org/project/navbar
http://drupal.org/project/responsive_tables
34. Panels
Are you using it today?
Different layouts for different pages
Responsive layouts
In-place page building
Layouts for forms too (node add / edit)
Used by most distributions
(Panopoly, Commons, Recruiter, Nodestream..)
35. Other
Emails and activity streams
- Message & Message Notify
Breadcrumbs:
- Crumbs
- Path Breadcrumbs
