Dynamic Media Redirect, Possible?

[aanchal-sikka]

Hello

We have a usecase where same image can be served via different names. 
Like Image-1.jpg can be served as:

• https://abc.scene7.com/is/image/abcstage/Product1
• https://abc.scene7.com/is/image/abcstage/Product2

1. Is it possible to set-up Dynamic Media redirects for such usecases? 

2. If yes, is it possible to publish these redirects from AEM? We would prefer to avoid deployments for the same

I had come across the documentation for "URL redirect at the CDN level" on https://github.com/AdobeDocs/experience-manager-65.en/blob/main/help/assets/config-dms7.md , but details are unavailable.

1) Yes, it is possible to achieve this using Dynamic Media's capabilities. You can configure URL mappings or redirects at the CDN level. Adobe DM supports flexible URL structures, and assets can be served with different identifiers or parameters in the URL. However, implementing such redirects typically requires configuration in your CDN or leveraging Dynamic Media's publishing settings.
The documentation you referenced about "URL redirect at the CDN level" aligns with this approach, but details on how to configure this specifically are sparse. You might need to work with your CDN provider (e.g., Akamai) to set up these rules.
2) Never tried before but you can try the following:
-Write an Excel file that contains your URL mappings.
Example:

- Integrate the Redirect Map into Your AEM Project, for example /content/dam/your-project/redirects.xlsx
- Leverage ACS AEM Commons Manage Redirects
