Demystifying Storage Elements in AEM by Hemalatha Chockalingam Abstract The purpose of this article is to give a big picture of what are all the variable options available to store data in the AEM Repository and how to optimize it by following the corresponding periodical clean up mechanisms. When I try to understand this process, came across various terms (node store, data store, compaction, clean up) but often got confused where to use what. To understand each of this things in detail, I have attached the corresponding Adobe Links in the end. In this article, tried to cover the whole big picture of using various options for Storage in AEM and how to optimize it with corresponding clean up mechanisms. The AEM platform starting from AEM 6 is based on a Jackrabbit OAK repository (replacing the Jackrabbit 2.X repository of previous versions). This repository can be split in two different storage elements: the Node Store and the Data Store (also called Blob Store). In Adobe Experience

I am using Jackson exporter to export aem page content into json. for example below aem url will give me    http:4502/content/instaffers/jcr:content/root/container.model.json   It is working as expected. Now I want to send this json response to an external webhook as part of my custom workflow. To achieve this, I am planning to do below things,    Step 1 - Get JSON response in custom workflow process step  Step 2 - Send the generated json response to external webhook    For step 1 - Do we have any OOTB java api available to get the json response and send it to an external webhook? or Do we have to use the Http client api to AEM to get a json response ? or is there any other option to get a json response ? Also can I send the json file directly to an external webhook instead of creating physical json and give it to an external webhook(because in AEMaCS there would be challenges in creating physical files)? 

Hi Team,   Looking for a recommendation to publish assets programmatically from AEMaaCS to DM (Scene 7), specifically from a custom step in a workflow.   Currently, the DM Publish Servlet ([asset].dmpublish.json) will be invoked from the UI when publishing manually any asset to DM. Is there a way to programmatically do the same from the backend following best practices?   Thanks in advance!

Shortening URLs in AEM by JUAN AYALA Abstract Let’s face it, AEM URLs are ugly! Shortening them has been a requirement in every single AEM Sites implementation I have worked on. Why do clients want shorter, optimized URLs? First of all, less complicated URLs are more user friendly. They are easy for site visitors to type, clearer to read so a visitor is confident they are going to a relevant page, and less prone to user error when copy/pasting or retyping. From an SEO perspective, Google and other search engines can crawl a site more easily when the site structure (subfolders are used well) is clear and the URLs are easy to read without a ton of unnecessary symbols or parameters. Here is a typical AEM URL: http://www.mysite.com/content/mysite/en/mysection/mypage.html Instead of that, we would shorten the URL to: http://www.mysite.com/en/mysection/mypage.html Or assume en is the default: http://www.mysite.com/mysection/mypage.html Or remove the extension: http://www.mysite.com/mys

Hi My goal is to create a token whenever a page is rendered that contains a component called someTeaser. This someTeaser component renders in the template after the content and before the footer and is not editable. It is configured fixed in the template structure. The problem appears when I want to create a servlet for someTeaser. This component is not in the Content Repository crxde.   @SlingServletResourceTypes( resourceTypes = {Constants.ResourceTypes.SOME_TEASER}, selectors = {"token"}, extensions = Constants.Extensions.JSON)  The resource for this component is /conf/xx/settings/wcm/templates/someTemplate/structure/jcr:content/root/main/container/someTeaser. This resource cannot be resolved in publish. It is not under content but rather under conf.   Request URL: https://publish_server/conf/xxx/settings/wcm/templates/someTemplate/structure/jcr:content/root/main/container/someTeaser.token.json?t=1673508314088 Request Method: GET St

Someone asked an easy one on Marketo Nation today: We are adding new branding domain aliases to our Marketo Instances and we were wondering if we can use the same alias across all instances?   The answer is definitely No, and figured it was worth an official post in case others have this question down the line.   The explanation is pretty simple (as these things go!).   Branding domains are implemented via DNS Alias (CNAME) records. The left-hand-side of a CNAME record is the alias: your branding domain. The right-hand-side is the canonical name: the Marketo-controlled domain.[1]   An alias value is only allowed to appear once per DNS zone. So once you set up this record: click.example.com. 300 IN CNAME mkto-sj010203.com.   You can’t also have: click.example.com. 300 IN CNAME mkto-sj040506.com.   Here’s the warning from my favorite DNS server:   It’s a universally implemented rule, yet it’s kind of&
