AEM / AEM as a Cloud Service

AEM as a Cloud Service

We assess, migrate and run Adobe Experience Manager as a Cloud Service. That covers moving from AEM 6.x on-premises or Adobe Managed Services, modernizing code and content for the cloud, setting up Cloud Manager pipelines, and supporting the platform after go-live.

Start with an AEM Cloud Readiness assessment

Problems we solve

  • An AEM 6.5 platform nearing the end of its support window
  • Custom code that uses deprecated or unsupported APIs
  • Dispatcher, CDN and caching rules that don’t carry over cleanly
  • Integrations nobody fully documented
  • Cloud Manager pipelines that fail or take too long
  • No clear estimate of migration effort or cost

What we do

  • Cloud readiness assessment and migration complexity scoring
  • Code and content migration, including repository restructuring
  • Dispatcher and CDN configuration
  • Cloud Manager pipeline setup and troubleshooting
  • Integration inventory and re-platforming
  • AEM Forms migration to Forms as a Cloud Service
  • Post-go-live support and operations

How we approach it

  1. AssessAnalyze the repository, code, dispatcher and integrations, and score the migration’s complexity.
  2. PlanSequence the work, flag what to refactor, retire or rebuild, and agree on timelines.
  3. MigrateMove code and content with Adobe’s tooling, refactor where needed, and test in Cloud Manager.
  4. OperateStabilize after go-live, tune performance and support releases.

Common questions

How long does a move to AEM as a Cloud Service take?

It depends on how much custom code, content and integration you have. A readiness assessment gives you a complexity score and a realistic timeline before you commit.

Do we have to rewrite our AEM code for the cloud?

Usually some of it. Code that uses deprecated APIs, writes to the repository at runtime or relies on on-premises configuration needs to change. The assessment shows exactly what.

Can AEM Forms move to the cloud too?

Yes. AEM Forms as a Cloud Service supports Adaptive Forms, Communications APIs and workflows. Older LiveCycle and XFA forms need a migration plan of their own.
