Acceptable Scheduler Frequency in AEMaaCS

Question

Hi,

We're integrating with an external system using a scheduler to make API calls and sync data to AEM under /var/abc/... The client requests a synchronization frequency of 30-60 minutes for approximately 100 nodes within AEMaaCS.

Is that acceptable or what are all the factors we need to consider if we are going with shortened frequency?

Note: Due to security reasons we cannot go with Client-Side or On-demand calls.

Hi @srikrishnank190  I think 30-60 minutes frequency for updating approximately 100 nodes within AEMaaCS will be fine.

Hi @srikrishnank190

I believe this kind of decision depends on some factors:
- Is that a flat 100 nodes structure or a deep nested structure ?

- Are the nodes having lots of properties holding big data or not ?

- How much time an average import process takes for the expected data to be fetched and written in those 100 nodes ?

- How often does the external system accepts requests without throwing HTTP 429 status ?

- How critical is the imported data to be always as fresh as possible for the end user ?

All these questions should help you calibrate the import period. I also think that usually on average 100 nodes is a small amount of data, and AEM should support a much frequent import period then 30-60 minutes. But if business requirement is for that, I would go with that at the beginning, and leave some room for improvement later if necessary.
