Hi,

I've got a servlet that returns an XML in response. Have control over registering servlet as path or resource based.

Now when I hit a custom URL like "www.sitename.com/abc/releases/result.xml"(not an existing page), the servlet should trigger and dump the XML response.

Approach 1: Use the logic of AEM sitemap.xml and achieve this with custom etc resource mapping and URL rewrite.

Any other best approaches?

Thanks.

@VinayHegde It depends on the complexity of the business logic and frequency of date to be updated in that xml.

If it is too heavy execution and content is not too dynamic, i would prefer to run the logic offline maybe as scheduler once in a day and store the xml as physical asset in DAM path and i would point my dispatcher/rewrite rules to point to DAM location based on the public url you want to have.
If the content is dynamic in nature changes as and when requested, say price related etc.. no other option but to go with a servlet and execute logic at runtime.
