Lagoon Project Update - What we’ve done this year and what we’re planning next

The Lagoon team has been working hard behind the scenes. Find out what we've been up to, get a rundown on the new features available, and learn how to best utilize them.

As we near the end of 2024 and start to look towards 2025, we'll cover some of our thinking, outline some scenarios, and paint a picture for you.

For those new to Lagoon, we'll cover what Lagoon is, where we see Lagoon fitting into your platforms and workflows, and provide some insight into what a successful Lagoon adoption looks like.

John Faber, Managing Partner at Chapter Three
⏰ 4:35 PM - 5:05 PM CEST
Does a Next-Drupal Site Improve the ROI of Your Web Platform?

Next-Drupal offers a robust technical path to decouple your Drupal site without sacrificing the daily features editors require. While Next-Drupal has numerous benefits, many decision-makers still question, “Why should I use a decoupled front-end when Drupal works fine?”

In this session, we explore a compelling reason to consider decoupling your Drupal site, with a specific focus on the significant return on investment (ROI) it can yield.

Lauren Morris, amazee.io Product Manager
⏰ 5:25 PM - 5:55 PM CEST
