Dear DrupalCon Japan participants,

On Monday 17 November at 9:55am JST, Drupal founder and project lead Dries Buytaert will take the stage for a special Q&A keynote.

With Drupal CMS 2.0 released in September, it's a great opportunity to showcase what we have built so far, what we have planned next on the roadmap, and briefly look back at the process so far.

Drupal is so popular in the enterprise market that there is no single Drupal development project that is easy for developers.
One of the biggest challenges is the global project of deploying multiple sites in multiple languages in so many regions and countries.

AI is reshaping buyer expectations faster than any CMS trend we’ve seen. Prospects now ask: “How will your platform harness my data for AI without locking me in?” This session arms agency leads, sales engineers, and product owners with a pitch that lands.

Fax machines for marketing? Carved ivory seals for bank accounts? These aren't just "WTF Japan" memes; they grew out of the context of the bureaucracy, language, society, and culture. The better you understand this context, the more effective you will be here.

Join Dallas Ramsden on a journey connecting personal resilience with Drupal's transformative power through science, culture, and community.

The Drupal Canvas design system for Drupal CMS: one system, three site templates, and a streamlined path to low-code site creation—launching together to guide site builders, themers and designers.

このセッションでは、Drupalを使い始めた開発者の方に向けて、長期運用を見据えたDrupal開発の実践的なトピックを紹介します。
Drupalはセキュリティや拡張性に優れ長期プロジェクトに適したCMSですが、継続的な運用には工夫やノウハウが必要です。
本セッションでは以下のトピックを取り上げます：
- Drupalが長期運用に適している理由
- モジュール選定の考え方
- サイト構成管理のベストプラクティス
- アップデート戦略
- CI/CDによる自動化

oEmbed is a well established format, however ever evolving content usage policies and security restrictions are preventing site builders from using iFrames to inject external content from sources such as YouTube, Instagram, X, and many social networks and content providers.

I’ve been working directly with AI to help solve real challenges faced by marketing teams, improving workflows, reducing manual effort, and supporting better decision-making.

前半では日本拠点でのDrupal導入における課題や取り組みを紹介し、後半はグローバルDXPにおけるアジリティ実現をテーマに対談します。実務担当者の視点からの知見を共有します。

Drupalは高機能なCMSとして多くの実績を持つ一方で、日本では「技術者向け」「専門的すぎる」という印象を持たれがちです。しかし実際には、プロジェクトマネージャー（PM）、スクラムマスター（SM）、UXデザイナー、コンテンツプランナーなど、多様な職種が関わり合いながらプロジェクトを成功に導いています。

You've built an amazing Drupal site ready to deploy. You want your deployments zero downtime, error-free, scalable, and future-proof. Yet, you are almost on your own, and Kubernetes is quite a beast to tame!

Drupalでモジュールやテーマを開発する際や動作の中で気になる挙動を見つけた際の原因特定を行う為のデバッグ方法について普段私がどのように行っているかをハンズオンを交えて紹介します。

主な内容は以下の通りです。
・デバッグ環境の整え方
・デバッグに便利なコントリビュートモジュールの紹介(Devel, Web Profiler)
・IDE(PhpStorm)とXdebugを組合せたデバッグ方法

Curious about how AI is actually being used in the wild? Join Michael for an in-depth look at the awesome things that have been built with Drupal AI. This session gives an overview of actual running Drupal AI Implementations, how they work, and what we can learn from them.

Drupalはもはや単なるCMSではありません。AIの一部として機能しながら、同時にAIを操り、対話し、共に進化していく存在へと変わりつつあります。このセッションでは、DrupalがどのようにAIと共に進化し、新たな可能性を切り拓いていくのかを紹介します。

The vision for Drupal CMS (née Starshot) is bold and inspiring, inviting everyone in the Drupal community to consider how they might help end users accomplish even more with Drupal.

After the release of Drupal CMS 1.0, a language selector was introduced but it was later removed due to technical limitations.
Today, multilingual support is more essential than ever.
