Use Adobe AEM with OpenText DAM

[yuriiv54804449]

Hi Folks,

Is it possible to replace the backed-in Adobe AEM DAM solution with and OpenText DAM? So that later all Media is maintained in OpenText DAM and in Author Mode we can select the image from OpenText DAM.

I know that it's a little bit strange, but it's due to legacy issues

Thanks in advance!!

When you say replace the AEM DAM - out of the box - you cannot upload files to OpenText DAM from the AEM web UI. Nor can you hook in the Content Finder into the Open Text DAM. 

However - if you have assets in Open Text DAM that are able to be resolved over HTTP- you can most likely reference files located there from AEM components. That is - create a custom image component you can use in AEM that displays images in the Open Text DAM:

<img src =<URL TO OPEN TEXT DAM>
