You can imagine a project of this scale was daunting, but with proper planning and a thorough testing regiment, we completed the migration without downtime.
We took the opportunity to perform several enhancements as part of the project, including:
A focus on security. Our new server environment has been built with security first and foremost, so we keep your website one step ahead of hackers and malicious attacks. ?
Performance has been vastly improved, you might have noticed recently that your website is loading much faster! ??
All contact forms now have recaptcha installed on them, which will drastically reduce any spam sent
All SilverStripe 3 websites and modules have been updated to version 3.7 to take advantage of the latest improvements from SilverStripe Ltd ⏫
And for our developers, a fresh server environment that is modern and has all the bells and whistles will make our job much easier to serve our clients. ???
While SilverStripe 3 is super awesome ? and will be supported by Firebrand and SilverStripe Ltd until September 2020, some of you may want to jump forward to the latest SilverStripe 4 release. There are many improvements in this release, mainly around the CMS itself and are outlined in this link https://www.silverstripe.org/4/
If you are currently on SilverStripe 3 and are interested in upgrading your website to the latest SilverStripe 4 release please get in touch with us.
