Website hosting is now offered as a SaaS solution (Software as a Service) through Acquia. The service leverages Drupal as a content management system and website hosting. The Office of Information Technology (OIT), primarily the Web Management team, will manage the underlying technology including patching, provisioning, and securing the service.
How to get a website:
We have created 3 ServiceNow forms for the different phases of a website being estbalished in the Drupal environment.
- Domain/Website Request Form - The domain request form is for new websites. If the website already has a domain and you are just migrating from another solution to Drupal, skip this step and start with the Drupal Site Provisioning form.
- Website Provisioning Request Form - This form will create a ticket to provision a site in Drupal. The site will have a temporary URL during content building. No changes will be made to the current live website. Expected delivery of provisioned site should be less than 1 week.
- Go Live and DNS Switch Request - When the website is complete and ready to go live, please submit a request via this form. This form kicks off a website review process and a subsequent DNS change. Please note, this process will need to be started no later than 2 weeks before the expected Go Live date. Failure to submit early enough may cause the deadline to be missed. Depending on complexity of the website and the DNS configurations, expected completion of this phase will be at longer than 2 weeks.
