Content Transfer Tool currently supports only on-premise to AEM as Cloud movement.
Use-case:
Content Transfer Tool currently supports only on-premise to AEM as Cloud movement. However, there are use-cases wherein content needs to be synced between AEM as Cloud instances for which package manager process can be cumbersome. Especially when dealing with GBs/TBs of data now that disk usage dashboard is also not available in AEM as Cloud.
Current/Experienced Behavior:
Package Manager has to be used to transfer content and there is no easy way to split packages based on size apart from using include/exclude rules.
Improved/Expected Behavior:
Extend Content transfer tool to allow content sync between AEM as Cloud instances.
Environment Details (AEM version/service pack, any other specifics if applicable):
Hi @rampai As part of your requirement, Adobe is going to come up with Content Backflow. Feature has already been announced but I believe there's no timeline when it's going to be available for customers.
This has been reported to the engineering under the internal reference CQ-4351624. The product team will triage this request to verify feasibility based on the prioritization model. This post will be updated according to the Jira request status.
The self-service content copy is in early adoption currently. With this feature, customers can copy content to lower environments within a program on Cloud Service. If @rampai, you are interested in becoming an early adopter, please DM me your details.
