With Drupal in 2025, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and the introduction of a new core recipe redefine content management. This major update, scheduled for January 15, 2025, will replace the traditional “Standard” installation profile and bring essential, modern features to enhance user experience and content management.

Drupal 7 update: End of security support in January 2025
Security support for Drupal 7 will end on January 5, 2025. After this date, sites running on this version will no longer receive security updates, leaving their data vulnerable. Sites must migrate to newer versions of Drupal (Drupal 10, 11 and beyond) to remain compliant with security standards such as FedRAMP, PCI, HIPAA and SOC 2.
