Moving Beyond Keywords to Make Visual Search Smarter: How AI Understands Creative Intent by Scott Prevost Abstract Most visual creations start with a search—for images, colors, fonts, and inspiration—but search has always felt disconnected from the creative process. It can be tedious and time-consuming to translate brilliant, imaginative ideas into words. Search terms rarely convey the aesthetics and emotions at the heart of a creative idea – which can make image search become a mind-numbing task when it should be inspiring. That’s why we’re using our artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning technology, Adobe Sensei, to fundamentally change the nature of search and help make creative visions a reality. What AI-powered search can do, and what it means for creativity With deep learning, we’re training our search algorithms to better understand images to recognize objects—like cars, cats, humans, or even the Eiffel Tower—as well as colors, composition, style, and mood. Then, w

AEM as a Cloud Service - Dispatcher Converter Tool by Dinesh Chaudhary Abstract Overview With Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) being available as a Cloud Service, there are a few notable changes on how Apache & Dispatcher configurations can be structured so that they can be deployed on the cloud. Below is an important if not exhaustive change list for dispatcher configurations on AEMaaCS. Some Apache directives may not be used (for example Listen or LogLevel) Only some pieces of the Dispatcher configuration can be put in include files and their naming is important. For example, filter rules that you want to reuse across different hosts must be put in a file called filters/filters.any. There is an extra validation to disallow filter rules written using /glob to prevent security issues. All virtual host sections should refer to port 80. Statement in virtual host section that refers to any port other than 80 will not get processed. This article outlines the Dispatcher Converter whic

AEM SPA editor - FAQ by Niek Raaijmakers Abstract Answering the most commonly asked questions about the SPA editor Today I am going to answer some FAQ that I get a lot from customers, that are not addressed in the latest post / archetype updates. Disclaimer: As the solution gets updated frequently, these answers might become outdated. Are Content Fragments supported? As of today just recently, for react yes, for angular not yet. (PR is pending) Check the PR for react here and for Angular here to see how it's used. Note: this is for the spa editor only because it depends on the component-mapping. Are Experience Fragments supported? As of today just recently, yes. They require you to overload a resource type from the spa-core project, and to provide 3 HTL files. No more Java hacking required. This is baked into the latest AEM archetype release now, so you don't need to worry about it if you use this as a base. Otherwise, you can generate a project and see how it's done there with m

Archetype update 28: SPA editor by Niek Raaijmakers Abstract At Adobe, we just released some updates to the AEM archetype. This includes some important updates for the react / angular frontend-module: Experience Fragment support provided OOTB (demo provided) Code splitting / lazy loading demo provided Navigation Component with routing provided in Header XF Server Side Rendering bootstrap provided Express + IO runtime for React Express for Angular These were topics that caused our customers that were implementing the solution to spend a lot of time on setting up. And most of them required this. Personally I got bombarded with questions on how to tackle this. Then the customers would implement these solutions on their private repositories. Now with these changes, our customers won't need to ask these questions; they will be armed with a working solution from the start without any effort. That's why I am really excited that this release is shipped successfully! You can start out with

I have a title component(touch-ui) in my project and made the title field mandatory by setting required(boolean) – true at the title property level. Now, when we save the dialog with an empty title field, validation fires up, but the triangular icon overlaps the description icon in the component. See screenshots below. Is there any way to resolve this?Seeing the same behavior in We.retail title component.

A Simple Example of Sling Pipes in AEM by Anurag Chaudhary Abstract With Sling Pipes it's very easy to update the AEM content. It is a tool for executing CURD operations over resources in AEM repository. Hope this will be helpful. Plumber is OSGi service and it has newPipe method in which we need to pass resourceResolver. After that we can call several pipes or methods to achieve our objective. Some of them are- echo(path) - to retrieve the root resource of the path. write(config) - to write/update properties of a resource. run() - to execute the code. Use case: To update property of a node using Sling Pipe OSGi service. Dependencies required- 1. Sling Query (org.apache.sling.query-4.0.0)- Maven Repository: org.apache.sling » org.apache.sling.query » 4.0.0 (mvnrepository.com) 2, Sling Pipes (org.apache.sling.pipes-3.1.0)- Maven Repository: org.apache.sling » org.apache.sling.pipes » 3.1.0 (mvnrepository.com) Either install the bundle of respective dependency in console

AEM : Choosing a Front-end Approach in 2021 by Niek Raaijmakers Abstract One of the questions that arise when starting a new AEM project, is what kind of front-end approach to choose. In Adobe we have internal guidance with a document of 15+ pages, and obviously I won't put that here because it's going to bore you out. Instead, I want to distill it down to a few considerations. Customer First Remember, the first priority is the customers needs, and that often includes not spending too much money and effort, on the short and long term. This might sound basic, but what I often saw in my consulting days, is that very passionate (Front-End) agencies push for the latest and greatest front-end tech. Why? Because it's cool. We like working with it. Everybody else we know is doing it It's a few milliseconds faster in rendering. Now while these above are understandable, and I admire passion for the job, these reasons should be the lowest priority. Instead think this, I choose this front-e

Building Flexibility and Streamlined Internal Process with Hybrid Headless in Adobe Experience Manager by bounteous Abstract Organizations that create a lot of content to be used across sites or different applications can use a hybrid headless approach with Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) to add flexibility without sacrificing content authoring capabilities. If you've done anything with a Content Management System in the past few years, you've likely heard the term "Headless." Headless is used to describe the concept of storing the content within one system and consuming that content for display within another system. The "body" is stored in the CMS while the display or "head" is managed in a different system, leaving the CMS as a "Headless CMS." Going headless can offer several advantages over a traditional CMS setup. A primary advantage is the flexibility afforded when content can be consumed across various channels and disparate display systems. For example, content may be consume

Mocking HTTP Clients in AEM Projects by perficient Abstract The first thing I learned as an AEM developer was mvn clean install -P autoInstallBundle. The second thing was how to debug a remote Java process. The first allowed me to deploy updates I made to the bundle. The second allowed me to step through and debug the code. This was the normal cadence. Since then, the AEM Maven Archetype has evolved to include JUnit 5 with wcm.io AEM Mocks. That sits on top of the Sling Mock APIs. With JUnit and the AEM Mocks, I have been able to switch from a build/deploy/debug cadence to a test-driven one. This includes resources, servlets, pages, tags, context-aware configurations, models, and OSGi components. You name it. You can hit about 90% of the use cases you might encounter during AEM OSGi bundle development. This blog is not about 90%. I’m sure you can find a lot of examples out there. This is about that 10%, in particular with HTTP clients. Right out of the box, AEM comes with the Apache
