Hi everyone,
I’m working on an AEM on-premises setup, and we have terabytes of digital assets (images and videos) stored in DAM.
I want to set up Dynamic Media (On-Premises) as a separate server so that AEM can deliver all image and video renditions dynamically.
Could you please guide me with the step-by-step process and best practices to install and configure Dynamic Media On-Premises?
Specifically, I need help with:
Where to get the official Dynamic Media On-Premises binaries (image-server.zip, video-server.zip, IPS-admin-tools.zip)
The exact pre-requisites (OS, Java, ports, hardware)
How to install and configure the Image Server (IPS) on a separate machine
How to connect AEM Author/Publish with IPS using OSGi configurations
How to replicate assets from DAM to the Dynamic Media server
How to configure Dynamic Renditions and video streaming for high-volume assets
Any reference documentation or real-world examples for large-scale Dynamic Media On-Premises deployments
Environment details:
AEM Version: 6.4.0 (On-Premises)
OS: Linux
Deployment Type: On-Premises
Assets Volume: around 1.5 TB (images and videos)
Any guidance, best practices, or documentation links would be greatly appreciated. 🙏
Thank you,
Vikram Kumar
