Umbracademia! - Umbraco Community Day DEC 2023
This talk will give an account of my MSc. Computing Dissertation - “Migration of Nightingale HQ’s website from Hugo to Umbraco CMS 10”. Carried out for my employer Nightingale HQ over thirteen weeks, this dissertation involved a complete site migration from a static site generated tech stack (Hugo + Netlify CMS) to Umbraco.
This talk will cover the difficulties of migrating a website from unstructured data (i.e. Markdown files) to the SQL database via the Content Service, the creation of the Azure hosting infrastructure and CI/CD pipeline, and the hurdles of tackling my first major Umbraco 10 project. It will also cover the stresses, burnout and triumphs I experienced through the project's completion.
