Currently our website is hosted with AMS, and includes an externally hosted AWS MySQL Database, connected via peering of the private networks. We are investigating moving the site to AEM as a Cloud Service, and we were trying to confirm whether AaaCS supports external databases. Does anyone have any information around whether this is possible with Cloud Services? I have been unable to find anything in the documentation.

If you’ve spent any time in marketing operations, it is inevitable that you will have heard the question: “why hasn’t {so and so} received this email?” This question can cause us to spend a lot of time on a wild goose chase, especially if the common culprits aren’t the cause of the issue.   The smart list rules for your email program somehow didn’t qualify the person due to missing or incorrect data, or an error in the filtering rules, -or- The person had unsubscribed from communications, and the email was not sent as operational.  Generally, if you aren’t filtering out your blocked records from your email sends, then you can see this person in the Blocked list in your email program.  These are the two most common reasons people don’t qualify for email sends.  However, there is a third cause:  Communication limits have been reached.     Communication limits are an important feature of Marketo. This feature prevents records in your database

HTL Expression Language by Adobe Docs Abstract The HTML Template Language uses an expression language to access the data structures that provide the dynamic elements of the HTML output. These expressions are delimited by characters ${ and }. To avoid malformed HTML, expressions can only be used in attribute values, in element content, or in comments. ${properties.jcr:title} Expressions can be escaped by prepending a \ character, for instance \${test} will render ${test}. Variables Variables are containers that store data values or objects. The names of variables are called identifiers. Without having to specify anything, HTL provides access to all objects that were commonly available in JSP after including global.jsp. The Global Objects page provides the list of all objects provided access to by HTL. Read Full Blog HTL Expression Language Q&A Please use this thread to ask the related questions.

A Short, Semi-Accurate History of Web Content Management by Daniel Klco Abstract To understand where we are going in Web Content Management, we must first understand how we got to where we are now. Let’s embark on a semi-accurate and mildly satirical journey through the history of Web Content Management. In the Beginning… In the beginning, the web developer created raw HTML without form or process and saw it was bad. Incantations such as FrontPage and Dreamweaver could produce elegant pages from arcane HTML tags, but code and content were inexorably mixed any changes to words or images required developer support. Developers grew tired of marketing buzzing on about customer journeys, content velocity, and interactions and decided something must be done to provide separation between content and code.

Case Insensitive Queries with the AEM Query Builder by Daniel Klco Abstract Recently, I needed to perform a query using the AEM Query Builder which was case insensitive. While I normally prefer using JCR SQL2 queries, in this case Query Builder was a better fit as I wanted consuming applications to be able to manipulate the query and doing so as a map is significantly easier than doing so as a string. I was surprised to find that there was no native Query Builder Predicate for doing case insensitive queries so I ended up writing my own. The predicate works by lower casing the value and then using the XPath fn:lower-case method to compare to the field value in lower case. /* This is free and unencumbered software released into the public domain.

AEM: debugging Apache rewrite rules on dispatcher by Jeroen Druwé Abstract On my current project, we have many Apache rewrites rules configured. I recently discovered an issue in one of our rules that caused our product pages not to render correctly. It can be quite cumbersome to check every single rule, I went looking for a better solution and found one: mod_rewrite logging using the LogLevel directive. Within your directive LogLevel alert rewrite:trace3 mod_rewrite offers detailed logging of its actions at the trace1 to trace8 log levels. The log level can be set specifically for mod_rewrite using the LogLevel directive: Up to level debug, no actions are logged, while trace8 means that practically all actions are logged. Using a high trace log level for mod_rewrite will slow down your Apache HTTP Server dramatically! Use a log level higher than trace2 only for debugging! - http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_rewrite.html#logging tail -f error_log | fgrep '[rewrite:'

Use Project Masters by Adobe Docs Abstract Project Masters work by defining a set of AEM user groups (owners, editor, and observer) and allowing derived Projects to reference and reuse those centrally defined user groups. This reduces the overall number of user groups required in AEM. Before Project Masters, each project created 3 user groups with the accompanying ACEs to enforce permission-ing, thus 100 projects yielded 300 user groups. Project Masters allows any number of Projects to reuse the same three groups, assuming the shared membership aligns to Business requirements across the project.
