Searching External Data

Hi all,

I'm fairly new to AEM, and was wondering if there is a way to use the core AEM search to index data outside of the AEM platform. We have a 3rd party system that has specific data that we'd like to have in our search results. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Danny

Hi,

Yes, it can be possible by using SOLR Search in AEM. See this below Slide Share:

Also, see this community article Integrating SOLR search with AEM

Hope this helps!

Out of the box, AEM only searches within the JCR. To search out of AEM, you need to build a custom AEM service (an OSGi) that knows how to search external data.

For example, if you want to search data in a relational database - like MySQL, you can build an AEM Service that uses SQL to search a database. Something like:

Hope this helps.

Hi Ratna,

This was very helpful, indeed. I haven't implemented anything yet, but looking at what you provided looks to be a great step in moving forward. Much appreciated!
