Hello - can you explain how I set up rolling dates on the calendar in CJA? It's unclear from the CJA overview study guide. Is there a formula or something that I can apply to any rolling dates, whether weekly, monthly, yearly, etc.?

 

This scenario for example:

- Current reporting period is Sunday-Monday and I want to set up a report for Saturday - Sunday so that I can review on Monday morning.

Let's say I'm setting up the report today (Monday 7/28) so this is our current week. Can you please walk me through step-by-step how I set this up and explain why for each step.

For example:

- What would the start date be, and why?

- What would the end date be, and why?

 

Thanks!

Hi,

I think the correct answer should be D, not C.

By utilizing multiple AEM instances, the computational RESOURCE increases, but the load should decrease.

Please clarify.

Hi Jelyne,

Thank you for your response.

After reviewing the URL you provided, I still don't understand why option C is the correct answer.

The statement from the URL you provided, "distributing the computational load across several instances of AEM", by distributing the computational load, does it mean the load will be decreased on the individual instance? Isn't it contradictary with option C?

Please help me to understand if I might be wrong.

Thank you.

Hi,

The correct answer of this question should be C

The options A and B are correct, but the question is asking "in the context of SPA Editor". How come option B being the correct answer when it doesn't have any context with SPA Editor.

Hello @daniardypr,

I’m a fellow learner focused on Adobe DX course-related questions here.

 

Thank you for sharing your query regarding the Adobe Experience Manager Sites Developer course.

 

Great observation! You are absolutely on the right track with reference to the 23rd question regarding the SPA Editor.

 

While option C describes a useful outcome, option B is technically the most accurate answer in this context. It highlights the annotated Java objects that make the whole integration possible.

 

Let's allow the author some time to evaluate the issue and provide us with the accurate information promptly.

Let me know if I've addressed your query. Happy to help further.

Hi,

In the "AEM Environment Setup", there is a statement that I think doesn't make sense and is contradictory to the previous statement.

As the previous statement says, "Server IDs match with the prefix adobe and cloud-manager should not be used," the second statement should remove the highlighted word "not" in the screenshot.

 

This also impacts the following question in the "Practice A"

 

Please clarify or help to correct if my understanding is wrong.

Hi @DaniardyPr,

 

I'm a fellow learner focused on Adobe DX course-related questions here.
 

I reviewed the question you posted and tried to find a direct answer, the best answer is A.

This is because, as per the Cloud Manager build process, the <servers> element in the file will be merged into the default settings.xml provided by Cloud Manager.

Since ABC Company is using Cloud Manager, they must follow the naming conventions described in Statement one.

Additionally, to ensure the server IDs are properly reflected and mirrored, they need to meet the requirements explained in Statement two.

Your answer was partly correct, but A is the best answer because the question asks for a direct solution specific to the company scenario. Your response was more general, although still valid.

Hi Juan,

Thank you for your response.

 

In my opinion, option A has a problem:

As you mention, the <server> element "will be merged". It means that the merging process will be done automatically by the system. On the other hand, option A states that the <server> "should be merged." It gives the impression that the merging process should be done "manually".


Hi @daniardypr,

I'm a fellow learner focusing on Adobe DX course-related questions here.

After seeing your reply, I reviewed the question you posted and tried to find a direct answer. Unfortunately, I couldn’t locate one that clearly addresses the details about merging.

Let’s wait for the course author to review and provide accurate information.

Hi,

Please review the following question.

Based on the article below, assessment and planning should be part of the Readiness phase, not the Go-live

https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/experience-manager-cloud-service/content/migration-journey/getting-started 

It doesn't make sense to conduct assessment and planning during Go-live.

Thank you.

Hello @daniardypr 

 

I’m a fellow learner focused on Adobe Digital Experience  course-related questions here.

 

In response to your query about transition to AEMaaCS and based on the article posted.  

 

We have identified a solution that I believe will address your issue effectively. 

 

The migration journey from an existing AEM environment to AEM as a Cloud Service (AEMaaCS) begins with an assessment of the current setup. This includes evaluating content, customizations, and integrations. Based on this evaluation, a detailed migration plan is developed, followed by thorough testing to ensure a smooth transition.

 

The actual migration takes place during the Go-live phase, which is executed once all necessary preparations are completed. Therefore, the correct answer is the Go-live phase, as this is when the deployment is moved to AEMaaCS.

  • The Readiness phase focuses solely on evaluating whether the current environment is ready for migration to AEMaaCS.
  • The Implementation phase is where the existing code and content are updated and made cloud-ready.
  • The Go-live phase involves the actual deployment and transition to AEMaaCS.

Below is the course link for the reference

Hi Rashmi,

I understand that the Go-live phase is the actual migration / actual execution / actual deployment. However, please evaluate the question again, it is talking about "assessment" and "planning". Thus, they are far from the "actual execution" that you mention happens during Go-live.

Please help me understand if I might be wrong.

Thank you.

Hi,

Please review the question below,

When the context is Multi Site Manager (MSM), option A must be the most correct answer as it mentions live copies to "multiple sites".

It is also align with the following article: 

https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/experience-manager-65/content/sites/administering/introduction/msm 

Please help to clarify if I might be wrong.

Hello @daniardypr,

I’m a fellow learner focused on Adobe Digital Experience  course-related questions here.

In response to your query regarding blueprint configurations for a multi-site project, the best answer is: B. Defining Source Content for Replication to Live Copies.

In Adobe Experience Manager (AEM), when using Multi Site Manager (MSM), the Blueprint Configuration Manager is an important tool that helps manage and reuse content across multiple sites.

Here’s what you can do with it:
1. Define Blueprints (Source Content)
blueprint is the main page or site that serves as the starting point for creating copies (called Live Copies) for other regional or language sites.

2. Identify What Content to Copy
The blueprint configuration lets you choose which parts of your site should be used as the source content.
These sections will be copied to other sites as Live Copies.

3. Set Rules for Rollout and Sync
You can define rules (called rollout configurations) that control how and when updates made to the blueprint are pushed to the Live Copies. These updates can happen automatically, partially, or manually — depending on your needs.
