Let’s talk about extract, transform, and load, also known as ETL. If you are an AEM professional, this is something you have previously dealt with. It could be something along the lines of products, user bios, or store locations. The extract and transform parts may differ depending on your source and requirements. The loading part […]

After the introduction of AEM Core Components, custom component development has been drastically changed. In some use cases, there is zero customization and core components can be directly used for authoring. Even in those situations, the custom component is needed. It can be quickly built by extending the existing core components. Thus, the development cost […]

In my blog Writing Less Java Code in AEM with Sling Models, I talked about writing less code using Sling Models. I followed that up with Writing Less Java Code in AEM with Sling Models & Lombok. I talked about code generators helping in saving time by not writing redundant codes. You could say I […]

AEM is a robust platform full of useful APIs and frameworks available at our disposal. Understanding what’s in the box will help us write less code. In my previous blog post, I covered one of the most used frameworks, Sling Models. Plus, I showed a real-world example with multi-fields. For this blog post, we will […]

Content as a Service has revolutionized content management systems in the delivery of content.  Content is created once, independent of channels, and delivered without additional custom application code.  This saves a lot of time in the creation and maintenance of content and reduces the cost of operation. Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) has out-of-the-box (OOTB) features […]

One of the strong features of Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) is creating UI content using the content authoring capability with Core Components.  As contents are created, they are stored in a Jackrabbit Oak repository as resources, which is then fetched and rendered as HTML content.  When out-of-the-box content authoring components do not suit the needs […]

Implementing static code analysis might seem like a daunting task. In some cases, this may be true depending on logistics, timing, and other factors. There is however a quick and easy way to implement it for AEM projects. Using open-source tools such as CheckStyle, SpotBugs, PMD, and JaCoCo you will pay nothing and reap all the […]

Technical Marketers running personalization campaigns need content. Images, pull quotes, slugs, call-to-actions, short and long form videos, infographics, and polls all may be needed when building relevant and engaging experiences. However, tracking down content that is useful, relevant, and the right size and shape is difficult. More difficult is finding the right content for the […]

Managing your AEM repository size growth can be challenging for numerous reasons. What’s more, it may suddenly start to grow unexpectedly and fill up space in the assigned drive of your AEM application. In this post, I want to share a few AEM utilities & methods which can help you to not only manage the […]

Recently, I published a blog post regarding AEM Customization: Show Unpublished Reference Alert for Content Path where I showed how to customize the Pathfield and Xffield resourceType. In doing this, I was able to showcase how to create a notification for the content author as to whether the selected content path is published or not. […]

Have you ever noticed that while authoring an AEM component, the component dialog box does not provide any hints or alerts for if the selected content path is published or not? This is a confusing scenario for AEM authors, especially when setting or choosing the content path in the component dialog for pathfield and xffield […]

Recently, I needed to perform a query using the AEM Query Builder which was case insensitive. While I normally prefer using JCR SQL2 queries, in this case Query Builder was a better fit as I wanted consuming applications to be able to manipulate the query and doing so as a map is significantly easier than […]
