About this talk

What the session covered.

Vineet brought the WordPress migration talk to the Delhi WordPress community in 2017, covering the full migration process including database structure, DNS record management, server migration problems, and post-migration validation.

The session addressed migration as a structured engineering process rather than a copy-and-paste operation.
