Drupal 6 Long Term Support and Migration Partnerships

Lauren Kelly , Enterprising Onboarding Manager Reading estimate: 1 minutes

As many of you know, Drupal 6 reached End-of-Life on February 24, 2016, meaning it no longer receives security updates from Drupal.org.

At Pantheon, we are committed to helping our customers operate their Drupal 6 sites for as long as they are needed. Pantheon will continue hosting and supporting existing Drupal 6 sites on our platform.

Those looking for long-term support and a website management platform are welcome to migrate to Pantheon. We have selected two Long Term Support (LTS) partners to assist customers seeking to move their Drupal 6 sites to Patheon.

Moving forward, anyone wishing to migrate a Drupal 6 site to Pantheon can work with one of our LTS partner agencies: Tag1 Consulting or myDropWizard. Both of these partners are experienced in supporting Drupal sites on the Pantheon platform and specialize in maintaining security and site functionality for Drupal 6 sites. Should you need to keep your site running on D6, you will be in excellent hands working with them.
