Mid 2009, France Télévisions, the French public national television group, decided to switch to a new CMS that would be able to suit all their internet content publishing needs.

Since France Télévisions hosts more than 1000 sites, it was impossible to migrate all the sites at once. That's why a pilot site was chosen : the sports news site sport.francetv.fr. Of course, the CMS also had to be able to handle the others sites that would be migrated later.

What we want to tell you is the story of this successful Drupal project .

We will cover the following topics :
- What were the needs and constraints of the overhaul
- How Drupal was chosen over some other Open Source CMS
- How the site was designed to best suit the needs of the journalists : agile project management
- What features are available for the visitors
- What features are available for the journalists
- How the new sports site integrates into the existing information system
- How the architecture handles the heavy load of this site
- How Drupal multisite architecture can handle the future needs of France Televisions
