This blog post details the circumstances of the recent SA, explains how to review recent orders for fraudulent activity (including SQL queries to aid in searching), and reviews operational best practices for all Drupal Commerce users. Big thanks to the Drupal Security Team and Marcus Johansson for their assistance.

Boom! Finally have a definitive piece of content on when / why to choose Drupal Commerce over Shopify. We aren't just tooting our own horn here - there are many legitimate reasons to choose Shopify.

However, there are serious differences in ownership, data model, integration scope, and costs that Matt teases out in this article for SMEs to consider when weighing their options.

Highly recommend Josh's talk from the Drupal AI Summit at API Days NYC. I missed the event while exploring the Mountain West with my family (very stoke boosting), but listened today for his analysis of CMS in the post-AI era.

He makes a key point re: AI "inside" Drupal vs. "outside" Drupal that I've similarly observed w/r/t Centarro's own team and customers. On the one hand, we haven't found a single AI assistant bolted onto tools we already knew (e.g., Gmail, Slack, Jira, etc.) to be useful. On the other, our non-Drupal practitioner merchants and other friends running or managing companies are moving toward Claude as the sole desired user interface for all of their business.

Thus, I agree that "an open source technology that's willing to play a supporting role in a broader technology ecosystem has a ton of potential." Our investment will be in making Drupal Commerce more usable by AI. As a card carrying RESTafarian, I bet we'll see new features conceived of as Agent-first the same way we talked about API-first development.

They aren't that dissimilar, but they also aren't exactly the same.

The release includes a single page order management interface, making it easier for merchants to find and update any aspect of an order.

Particularly proud of Ivan's work on this release. It looks so much better and is more comprehensive in its scope. Focused checkout alone is likely to be a reason for sites to adopt it even just for the checkout routes if nothing else.
