#+title: Decommissioning Sites

The goal of this project is the elimination of the [[https://gitlab.aweber.io/CP/applications/sites][sites repository]], which is
built upon Perl and PHP code that is well past it's end-of-life date, and a
modernization of our public-facing application stack.

The project will engage multiple teams to coordinate the following three
efforts:

* [[id:193f7c04-0a03-4870-90c8-2b5e3c4c92ce][Moving applications out of Sites]]
- Individual pages will be replaced with React applications using public APIs
- Static content will be moved to CDN hosting
- Independent applications will be broken out into separate services

* Replacing the top-level application
The CakePHP Control Panel application will be replaced with a modern alternative
handling routing and React application loading.

* Overhauling logins and session management
The session-based login mechanism of the legacy Control Panel application is to
be replaced with OAuth, which is used for public API requests.
