Identifying AEM Environments Tier

Hi @anupampat 

If you are using AEMaaCS then you can use runmodes for environmental specific logic.

Hi @anupampat

To determine if AEM environments like DEV, STAGE, and PRODUCTION are on the same tier, you need to review the configuration in Cloud Manager. Specifically, look for the "tier" designation for each environment, which will indicate if they are classified as "author", "publish", or "preview". If all environments share the same tier designation, they are considered to be in the same tier. Another way to verify this is by attempting content copy operations, which are only possible between environments within the same tier.

Key points here:

• Access Cloud Manager: Go to Adobe Cloud Manager to view your AEM environment details.
• Check Environment Tier: In Cloud Manager, check the tier designation for each environment (e.g., "author", "publish", or "preview").
• Content Copy Functionality: If you can copy content between environments, they are on the same tier.

Example: If your DEV, STAGE, and PRODUCTION environments are all labeled as "author" in Cloud Manager, they are in the same tier.
