How to set up two AEM local development environments

[kayest]

Does anyone here have multiple AEM development instances set up locally that can be started simultaneously? I'm looking for the best approach and thought about simply using two different ports (4502 and 4512) and firing the quickstart.bat file for each to boot them up. How are others maintaining two totally separate AEM instances in their local environments?

Hi @kayest

I'm using multiple local instances and following the same approach of using different ports in start.bat file

hi @kayest ,

You can run n-number of instance on different 4-digit port. This is the only approach which people are taking.

You can also deploy multiple projects on single instance as well instead of different instances.

Thanks,

We can install N number of instances on local following the same approach of using different ports in start.bat/sh file.
