AEMaaCS + ACS Commons redirect manager: how does it work?

[jayv25585659]

According to this => https://adobe-consulting-services.github.io/acs-aem-commons/features/redirect-manager/index.html, Redirect manager is compatible with AEMaaCS but I'm unsure how to get the Cron+bash script (the script that downloads the redirect maps from publisher) into the dispatcher.

I am not sure if AEMaaCS lets customers run cron job.

Thanks

Redirect Manager allows content authors to maintain and publish redirect configurations from AEM. Support for redirects is implemented as a servlet filter which evaluates redirect configurations and issues a 302 or 301 respectively in case of a matching incoming request url.

Thanks for the response.

In previous versions of ACS commons, I had to write a bash script (auto-run using cron) that downloads the redirect maps from the publisher into the server running Apache HTTPD.

When creating a custom redirect in AEM, where does your implementation of 

LocationHeaderAdjuster

go in the core package? It doesn't work in servlet - or so it seems

This would push the execution of redirects to the AEM publisher instead of the dispatcher. Is that correct? I'm concerned about the load implications on the publisher.
