Our Drupal Platform Audit provides a deep technical evaluation of your existing Drupal implementation. We assess architecture, infrastructure, performance, security posture, code quality, and DevOps practices to identify risks, inefficiencies, and hidden bottlenecks. The result is a prioritized remediation roadmap aligned with your business goals.
Over time, Drupal platforms accumulate technical debt, inconsistent configurations, custom module complexity, and performance regressions. Without periodic assessment, small issues compound into security risks, scalability limitations, and rising maintenance costs. Many organizations lack clear visibility into architectural weaknesses until a major incident occurs.
We align audit scope with business objectives, pain points, and technical constraints.
We evaluate hosting setup, caching layers, database structure, and deployment pipelines.
We review custom and contributed modules, coding standards, and dependency health.
We analyze response times, caching effectiveness, database queries, and frontend performance.
We assess permissions, update status, vulnerabilities, and hardening configurations.
We provide a prioritized, impact-driven action plan for improvement.
Drupal Platform Audit provides a structured, evidence-based evaluation of your architecture, codebase, performance stack, and operational workflows. The assessment examines how content is modeled, how custom code is implemented, how deployments are managed, and how security controls are enforced across environments. By reviewing caching strategies, DevOps maturity, and scalability readiness, we identify structural weaknesses that may limit performance or long-term evolution. The audit framework emphasizes governance, maintainability, and modernization alignment rather than superficial fixes. The result is a clear technical baseline that supports informed executive decision-making.
We analyze your content types, entity relationships, taxonomy structure, and modular architecture to ensure the platform is logically structured and aligned with business requirements. This includes reviewing how content is modeled, reused, and governed across the system, identifying structural inconsistencies, and recommending improvements that enhance scalability, maintainability, and editorial efficiency.
Our audit evaluates custom modules and theme implementations for coding standards compliance, maintainability, and architectural soundness. We identify technical debt, deprecated APIs, performance inefficiencies, and refactoring opportunities to ensure your codebase remains clean, extensible, and future-proof.
We assess your full performance stack, including Drupal caching layers, Varnish/CDN configuration, database queries, asset optimization, and frontend performance. Bottlenecks are measured and prioritized, with clear recommendations to improve Lighthouse scores, reduce response times, and strengthen stability under peak traffic.
The audit reviews user roles, permissions, update policies, and overall vulnerability exposure. We verify security patch compliance, configuration hygiene, and access boundaries to reduce risk. The result is a structured assessment of exposure areas and actionable recommendations to strengthen platform security and governance.
We analyze your CI/CD pipelines, environment consistency, release procedures, and rollback strategies. This includes reviewing configuration management practices, deployment automation, and environment parity to identify risks and improve reliability, repeatability, and operational maturity.
We evaluate the platform’s ability to scale technically and organizationally. This includes capacity planning, multisite viability, cloud readiness, modernization pathways, and upgrade compatibility. The goal is to ensure your Drupal platform is prepared for growth, integration expansion, and long-term evolution.
