Why Drupal-specific hosting matters
Generic hosting providers often miss critical Drupal requirements. Here's what Drupal needs, and what Skpr provides as standard:
Drupal-Aware Server Configuration
- PHP tuning for Drupal: Proper PHP versions, memory limits, and opcache settings that align with Drupal's requirements.
- Database support: MySQL or MariaDB optimised for Drupal's database schema and queries.
- File system handling: Optimised for Drupal’s use of `/sites/default/files`, which needs to be writable and often shared across environments.
Developer tooling built for Drupal
- Drush integration: Support for Drush (Drupal Shell), a command-line tool used heavily in Drupal workflows.
- Drupal Console: Some hosts also support this alternative CLI tool.
- Composer support: Drupal 9 and 10 rely on Composer for dependency management—Drupal-specific hosts offer Composer-ready environments.
Optimised deployments and CI/CD for Drupal
- Support for configuration management: Using `config split`, `config sync`, and `.yml` files.
- Integration with Git-based workflows: Commonly used in Drupal dev.
- Multisite support: Many Drupal sites run as multisites from a single codebase. Good hosts understand how to handle this.
Knowledgeable support teams
- Cache layers: Render cache, page cache, dynamic page cache
- Module conflicts: Understanding and resolving compatibility issues
- Update hooks: Database schema changes and deployment support
- Drupal deployment issues: Fast resolution of complex deployment problems
Security and updates
- Core updates: Automated or guided Drupal core updates
- Contributed modules: Keeping modules secure and current
- Security patches: Rapid deployment of security fixes
- Monitoring tools: Integration with Update Status and Drupal.org security advisories
Performance tuning for Drupal
- Caching layers: Varnish, Redis, Memcached
- Reverse proxies: Work with Drupal's caching strategy
- CDN integration: Optimised for Drupal's dynamic/static hybrid content
- Performance modules: Support for BigPipe and other optimisation tools
Staging and environment management
- Multiple environments: Dev, stage, and production environments
- Database syncing: Easy database and file syncing between environments
- Data sanitisation: Tools to sanitise or anonymise data for staging
