Please advice.

OK - i see - you want to reference another web page from an AEM component.

You can try using IFrame to pull in content of a Java web app running on another server. Something like:

<html>

<body>

<iframe width="1000" height="800" frameborder="0" src="<URL TO THE WEB PAGE>"></iframe>

</body>
</html>

I am not aware of any articles on this use case - try that and see how it looks.

Are you referring to an external WAR file that has web pages under WEB-INF\pages?

Hi Scot,

Context : Need to revamp an application in AEM 5.6.1. Within this application, we have to integrate a stand alone java application. So is it good to call the homepage of standalone app within AEM via Iframes? Am considering a different appraoch of using the RESTFUL API of the standlaone application as well. Which is the best option? to use Iframes for integration or create webpages from JSON response? or is there a better option
