AEM and Google Cloud Platform

Hi there, I hope everyone is safe! I've been asking myself this question for some days now. Can I set up an instance on Google Cloud Platform and run AEM, right? Does someone implement this before? What challenges did you face? Can I do it for testing purposes under my developer license?

Hi @luisantonio,

 

Yes, you can use GCP and host the AEM. I personally did it in one of my projects. GCP is nothing but a cloud platform similar to AWS [which has its own differences]. So to host your AEM, all you need to do is create instances in GCP [with your required OS and hardaware] and start using it.

Hope this helps!

 

Thanks,

Hi @kiran_vedantam, thank you for your answer. My client has not bought the license yet, can I deploy an instance of AEM using GCP to showcase AEM as CMS? I've been learning AEM locally using a single author instance. How do you manage environments? like production and development, are they in someway connect to the same JCR?
