Connecting an instance of AEM to another remote instance of AEM

Has anyone directly connected on instance of the AEM to another remote instance of AEM in order to obtain assets or documents from another instance that is not part of a cluster of related instances?

If so, how bad was the performance hit?

What are some pain points?

Did you watch the recent Ask the Community Experts where they covered similar scenarios?

Obviously not.

Are there links to transcripts or recordings?

You would need to write a custom service in that case. Maybe something like:

Notice a custom servlet gathers assets and places them into a ZIP. 

You can go a step further and place them into a package using Package Manager API. 

Move the Package to the other instance (FTP ?) and then use Package Manager API to upload the package. This could all be automated.

We have an application where we have services running on two separate
systems, one is AEM and another is a different product. Both sides have
workflow triggers that send assets back and forth to keep them in synch. I
know this can be done. I was wondering if there was an easier way to
connect one AEM instance to another.
