We executed a 'Lift and Shift' to a hardened Drupal 10 distribution on AWS GovCloud. We integrated a centralized IAM system using SAML 2.0 for Single Sign-On (SSO) and implemented automated security scanning pipelines (CI/CD) to ensure immutable infrastructure patterns.
Achieving these results required a fundamental shift in infrastructure strategy. By moving away from monolithic dependencies and embracing a decoupled approach, we eliminated single points of failure.
