Contrary to my comment last May, I've got some more up-to-date info that AEM Communities has no plans for support in AEM as a Cloud Service (see: What’s the Future of AEM Communities? – OpsInventor).  So, if you're looking to do communities, your only bets are to either (a) design your own bespoke s...

Hi Marc - I'm just coming back to this here, as I haven't had luck with getting any other answers from Adobe. What I'm referring to here with my question is not using Solr as an AEM index, but using Solr as part of the MSRP arrangement, which (to my understanding) doesn't offer the same design const...

Hey Peter - thanks for the comment. Unfortunately I don't get plugin stats / caching metrics, as this implementation is still on ye olde Solr 5.5, as that was what Adobe recommended and they've still not updated their official recommendation on what Solr version to use for MSRP. I'm asking again to ...

I am looking for help from anyone who has run AEM Communities, on how to best optimize for performance.  An AEM Communities site I am supporting, backed by MongoDB & SolrCloud (MSRP) is running into severe performance constraints.  The performance constraints stem from the sheer number of calls our ...

@Peter_Grape as far as I know, this is not configurable. This was intentionally removed in AEM 6.5.5 along with PackageShare. http://www.jetteroheller.com/package-share-discontinued-on-aem-6-5-5-0-aem-6-5-sp5/

Thanks for this - but this quotes the same documentation as above, which I'm suspecting is out of date. OpenOffice 4.1.2 came out over 5 years ago, and there have been multiple releases of LibreOffice since then which provide speed & stability enhancements. I'm just trying to find out if there are a...

@arunpatidar from everything I've heard so far, it's still absolutely the plan to provide AEM Communities support on AEM as a Cloud Service - /eventually/. Just like Forms, Screens, Commerce, InDesign Server, etc, it's got a lot of work to do in order to make it work containerized in the new infra. ...

@Abi-sr It is absolutely possible to have your AEM Assets instance hosted on a private cloud, on-premise, or at AWS.  The version you'd be deploying on this would not be the "AEM as a Cloud Service" version, but would be the latest version of self-hosted AEM which at this time is AEM 6.5.4. I wrote ...

An AEM 6.5 Assets environment I am working with presently uses the PDF Generator service to convert PowerPoint files (pptx) from PPTX -> PDF for downloads as well as text extraction & indexing.   It is currently running into various performance problems, and the version of soffice.bin that it's runn...
