[Drupal] Hello, new to OSU and Drupal

[Shaw, James]

Hi,

I'm new to the OSU ecosystem and was looking to network with other Drupal administrators & developers within the university.  My role is mainly as a developer but am tasked with managing our (grc.osu.edu) web assets, which include a few Acquia hosted Drupal 8.x sites.  If anyone is willing to share their thoughts, best practices or what your "go to" resources are, I'm interested in leveraging your experience in the following categories.


*        Is there a Drupal user group and meetings here at the university??

*        Migrating to Drupal 9 - common pain points

*        Managing Drupal modules and theme updates

*        Pantheon vs. Acquia

*        With Acquia, it sounds like I am responsible for managing/ migrating the PHP versions (we are currently on 7.3), is ?

*        Any other things to look out for, that I don't even know to ask about?


Thanks in advance for any information/ tips you are willing to pass on!

Regards,

Dan Shaw
