What Drupal hosting has to provide in 2026
Drupal hosting is a Linux server set up for Drupal's stack: PHP 8.3 or 8.4 for Drupal 11, a MySQL 8 database, Composer 2 for dependencies and a cache layer for anonymous visitors. Drupal builds each page from many cached render fragments, so cache and PHP memory matter more than disk space.
Three dates on drupal.org's release schedule shape every hosting decision this winter. Drupal 10 reaches end of life on 9 December 2026, Drupal 12.0.0 is scheduled for the week of 7 December 2026, and Drupal 11 stays supported until early December 2028.
| Version | Released | End of life | PHP supported | Hosting verdict |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Drupal 10 (10.6) | 15 December 2022 | 9 December 2026 | 8.1 to 8.4 | Upgrade now; no security fixes after the EOL date |
| Drupal 11 (11.3, 11.4) | 2 August 2024 | Early December 2028 | 8.3 to 8.5 | The version to run on production today |
| Drupal 12 (12.0) | Week of 7 December 2026 | Early December 2030 | 8.5 only | Build on staging first; confirm PHP 8.5 before moving |
Drupal 11 server requirements and how WebJi® meets them
Drupal 11 needs PHP 8.3 or newer, MySQL 8.0, MariaDB 10.6 or PostgreSQL 16, Composer 2 and the GD image library. drupal.org sets a 64 MB PHP memory floor but notes production sites typically use 128 MB or 256 MB, more for media-heavy builds.
| Component | Drupal 11 needs | Shared plan (Control Panel Systems) | VPS or cloud plan |
|---|---|---|---|
| PHP | 8.3 or newer, OPcache with save_comments on | Confirm PHP 8.3 with support before ordering | Any version you install |
| Database | MySQL 8.0 / MariaDB 10.6 / PostgreSQL 16 | MySQL databases, 1 GB each (Launch 5; Turbo and Scale unlimited) | MySQL, MariaDB or PostgreSQL |
| Composer and Drush | Composer 2; Drush 13 for Drupal 11 | Not supported (no SSH) | Over SSH |
| Cache | Database cache; Redis recommended | Drupal database cache; ask support about a server-level cache | Redis |
| PHP memory | 64 MB minimum; 256 MB typical | Per plan limit | 512 MB for large module sets |
| Cron | Queue and scheduled publishing | Panel cron jobs (confirm with support) | System cron |
Drupal 12 drops PHP 8.4 and requires PHP 8.5 with argon2 password hashing, so ask support@webji.services which runtime your server offers before you schedule that upgrade.
Drupal hosting prices in India
WebJi® Drupal hosting starts at ₹299 a month on the Webji Launch plan, before 18% GST; Composer builds move to a VPS or cloud plan quoted per site. Billing lists an automatic CMS installer on every shared tier but does not name Softaculous or confirm Drupal is in its list, so ask support@webji.services before relying on a one-click install.
| Plan | Drupal fit | Price | Order |
|---|---|---|---|
| Webji Launch | One Drupal site on 1 domain; 20 GB storage, up to 5 MySQL databases of 1 GB each | ₹299/month | Order Launch → |
| Webji Turbo | One Drupal site on 1 domain with unlimited storage, mailboxes and MySQL databases (1 GB each) | ₹399/month | Order Turbo → |
| Webji Scale | Several Drupal sites: the only shared tier with unlimited domains | ₹699/month | Order Scale → |
| VPS or cloud | Composer, Drush, Redis and a staging copy | Quoted per site | Get Custom Quote → |
On Webji Turbo, 12 monthly payments come to ₹4,788 (₹399 × 12), while prepaying one year costs ₹3,828, both before 18% GST. Launch and Turbo each host a single domain; a second Drupal site on its own domain needs Scale. The shared tiers are described in full on Linux hosting; root access and SSH are covered on VPS hosting.
Which Drupal projects need a VPS instead of shared hosting?
A Drupal project needs a VPS when Composer, Redis, multi-site configuration or a separately managed staging environment requires access unavailable on the shared account. A brochure site with a handful of contributed modules can use a shared plan; confirm the supplied panel and runtime before ordering.
Business site with editors
Several content types, regular publishing, contact forms. Webji Turbo or Webji Scale.
University or government portal
Composer build, Redis, staging and heavy anonymous traffic. VPS or cloud, quoted.
Multi-site installation
One codebase serving several domains, each with its own database. VPS or cloud, quoted.
The practical upgrade signal: a cache rebuild after a module update that takes minutes, or editors waiting on slow saves. Drupal's structured content and permissions make it the heavier choice; the Joomla vs Drupal comparison explains when a lighter CMS such as Joomla hosting is the better buy.
Moving a Drupal site to WebJi®
A Drupal move goes database, files, code, then DNS, with a test on the new server before the domain switches. Migration is free when approved and subject to terms; one site is covered, and a multi-site install is scoped first.
- Enable maintenance mode and export the database with
drush sql:dumpor phpMyAdmin. - Copy the codebase and
sites/default/filesto the new account. - Import the database and update the credentials in
settings.php. - Run
drush updbanddrush cr, then test logins, forms, menus and image styles. - Lower the DNS TTL to 300 seconds, switch the domain, and raise the TTL after 48 hours.
If the site is on Drupal 10, move it first and upgrade to 11 on the new server, so one change happens at a time. The free website migration page lists what the team handles.
Support for Drupal sites hosted with WebJi®
Drupal accounts get the same 24/7 email desk as every WebJi® plan: support@webji.services, in Hindi and English, with an average first reply under 60 minutes. WebJi® has run hosting from Jaipur since 2005 (formerly B4UIndia), bills in INR with GST invoices and publishes a 99.9% uptime target.
Drupal sits beside WordPress, Joomla and Moodle in the CMS and open-source hosting range, which compares the stacks side by side.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What happens to a Drupal 10 site after 9 December 2026?
It keeps working, but drupal.org releases no further security fixes for Drupal 10. Every new core or module vulnerability stays open on that site. Plan the move to Drupal 11, which is supported until early December 2028, and test it on a copy before production changes.
Should a new project start on Drupal 11 or Drupal 12?
Drupal 11 for anything launching before early 2027. Drupal 12 arrives in the week of 7 December 2026 and needs PHP 8.5, and many contributed modules take a few months to declare compatibility. A Drupal 11 site can upgrade later in place.
How much PHP memory does a Drupal site need?
drupal.org sets 64 MB as the minimum and says production sites typically use 128 MB or 256 MB. Media-heavy builds or large module sets can need more; 512 MB on a VPS is a safe starting point for a portal with many contributed modules.
Can I install Drupal with Composer on a WebJi® shared plan?
Not on WebJi® shared plans, because Composer and Drush need SSH and a writable project root. Use the panel's CMS installer on shared hosting (confirm Drupal is offered), or take a VPS, where SSH, Composer and Drush are available and Redis can be added as the cache backend.
Does Drupal run on PostgreSQL at WebJi®?
Shared plans include MySQL 8.0, which Drupal 11 supports. If your project specifically needs PostgreSQL 16, it runs on a VPS or cloud plan where the database server is installed for you; mention it when requesting the quote.
