Migrating From Static Template to Editable Template (AEM 6.3.0 to AEM 6.5)

[tushaar_srivastava]

Hi,

We are just moving from AEM 6.3.0 to AEM 6.5, I am excited to Learn new challenges.

Problem I am facing is : Suppose we have huge number of pages with static template, now we have to move all the pages to Editable,

Can anyone please suggest me the best approach.

I have gone through the AEM Modernization https://expleague.azureedge.net/labs/aem-intro/index.html and got to know how to create Editable templates and how to apply policies.

But Since we have to move our pages from static to Editable what is the best approach,

Thanks

Hi I ve got a question on moving from static to editable templates

When we move from static to editable templates

1. How do we use the components that have design dialog

2. Do we need to create/redesign new components that have backend code which read properties from /etc/design nodes

3. Does legacy components work on editable templates

Please share your thoughts
