Does AEM as a Cloud automatically send images using Dynamic Media

[WalterHill_WV]

I recently joined a company and there is a website already published.  I was told that the company does not have Dynamic Media, but some of the assets are served up by Dynamic Media.

Does anyone have any ideas?

@WalterHill_WV - Dynamic Media requires add-on license on top of AEM Assets regardless of AEM cloud or on-prem.

On AEM cloud, the assets by design are served from blob storage as shown here - https://developer.adobe.com/app-builder/docs/resources/custom-asset-compute-worker/aem-cloud-assets/

Thanks @Jineet_Vora ,

 This is my understanding, but I'm still confused since when I inspect an image with devTools

the URL of the asset starts with

url('/adobe/dynamicmedia/deliver/dm-aid-.......

I have found my answer:

Web-optimized asset delivery support in Image component for AEMaaCS
 - Same stack as Dynamic Media
 - No license required

Also, you can write you own version for use in your custom components
