Consistency between commerce product and page

Hi folks,

i have a question regarding best practice for e-commerce product handling in AEM. 

As an example we can take default implementation --> geometrix-outdoors. There we have data products stored in /etc/commerce/products directory and for each product an author should create a page and configure that page to show a specific product.

We have debates for the following questions:

#QUESTION1 

     (proposed  by our manager) : product contains link to template and when user reaches the product in http://localhost:4502/etc/commerce/products/men/edmonton-parka - he will see the page based on template even the author has not created specific page in     content folder. 

    Is it a  correct architectural decision?

    What impact has such solution on other parts of the system (caching, adobe analytics, page management (activate/deactivate) , ACL)?

#QUESTION2

    If we follow the geometrix approach (1 product should have 1 page in content) . Imagine we have productA and a page for that product. If user will delete the product from /etc/commerce/products the page remains without data. 

    How should we handle such case? Is there some common approach for such situation? 

 

Looking forward for your reply, thanks in advance

Yura.

    From your question looks like you are still using CQ 5.5 . Make sure to go with latest Or atleast with AEM 5.6. Because apart from PIM to product pages need to take care of additional things like Content Structure, Multi-Channel, Multi-market, Multi-lingual... 

    Look at Catalog Blueprint (catalog pages rollout) which address both of issue. http://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/current/ecommerce/eCommerce-native.html#GENERATING A CATALOG
