About this talk

What the session covered.

WordPress Multisite is a powerful architecture for managing networks of related sites, but its operational complexity is underestimated at setup time.

At WordCamp Poznań 2018, Vineet covered the ongoing maintenance model required to run a Multisite network reliably, including update governance, user management, plugin compatibility, and the architectural decisions that affect the whole network, not just individual sites.
