Scalability in Adobe Experience Manager doesn’t start with technology — it starts with governance. Without clear standards for content, components, and workflows, even the best AEM implementation can slow teams down instead of speeding them up. A strong governance framework defines how content is created, reviewed, and deployed, ensuring consistency, compliance, and brand control at every step. The result: faster publishing, fewer errors, and a digital foundation that scales with your business. https://lnkd.in/ebtwxNSm #JudgeConsulting #AEM #AdobeExperienceManager #DigitalExperience #ContentGovernance #DigitalTransformation

Excited to share my latest article on how AEM Edge Delivery Services and Adobe Workfront can work together to automate the content review and approval process. This integration bridges creativity and workflow — connecting content authors, marketers, and reviewers through a single seamless ecosystem. #EdgeDeliveryServices #AdobeWorkfront #WorkfrontFusion #FireflyServices #Automation #DA.live

Efficiently managing workflows is essential for maintaining optimal performance and reliability in Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) projects, particularly when working with asset workflows. However, automated updates and service-driven changes can unintentionally trigger workflows, introducing unnecessary overhead and delays. Fortunately, AEM Workflow Launchers offer a way to selectively ignore specific update events by utilizing JCR session user data. This approach enables developers and administrators to: ✔️ Prevent redundant workflow executions ✔️ Precisely control when workflows trigger ✔️ Avoid recursive triggers during automated asset processing—an approach already implemented by AEM's DAM Asset Update Workflow.

Here’s the topics Martin Buergi and myself going to cover on Nov 11: 1. Agents - why? Because your marketing team wants to edit content however they darn please 2. MCP - why? Because integrations really shouldn’t be more than a text file 3. ChatGPT apps - obviously One more: ethical playbook to gain brand visibility in non branded LLM conversations - huh? Priceless

Day 1 of AEM Workfront Series – Why Proper Intake Matters Monday morning: five new requests dropped in. “Can you launch a campaign?” “Need an urgent homepage update!” “Quick tweak to the hero banner…” By noon, priorities blurred. Teams worked hard but not on the right things. 🎯 The Hidden Culprit: Poor Intake and Prioritization In AEM Workfront, everything starts with request intake. When projects skip structured intake, chaos sneaks in duplicated work, missed deadlines, and unclear ownership. Each request needs: Clear objective (why it matters) Defined priority (how soon it matters) Assigned owner (who makes it happen) * How We Fixed It ✅ Created custom request forms with mandatory fields ✅ Built automated routing to assign the right team ✅ Linked AEM project dashboards for visibility ✅ Used Workfront reports for status tracking and approvals * Lesson Learned Good delivery starts with good intake. If your AEM and Workfront setup isn’t filtering priorities, you’re not managing you’re reacting. ?? Question for you: How do you manage intake chaos in your AEM or project workflows? #AEM #AdobeExperienceManager #Workfront #ProjectManagement #MarketingOps #DigitalExperience #WorkflowAutomation #Productivity #TechBlog

After working on multiple large-scale AEM implementations over 7+ years, one thing has stayed constant reusability = scalability. In my early AEM projects, we built components fast to meet deadlines but over time, I realized that truly scalable AEM ecosystems depend on component reusability, not just functionality. Here’s what I’ve learned from building 400+ components across industries: 🔹 Modular Design: Every component should serve one clear purpose no hidden dependencies. 🔹 Sling Models over JSPs: Clean separation between logic and presentation keeps code maintainable. 🔹 Core Components First: Extend instead of reinventing. Adobe’s Core Components cover 70% of business needs    when configured right. 🔹 Editable Templates + MSM: Empower authors to scale content globally without developer intervention. 🔹 Dispatcher Caching & ClientLibs Optimization: Performance is part of reusability. If it’s slow, authors won’t reuse it. The result? ✅ 45% faster authoring ✅ Fewer defects during deployments ✅ Happier business users who can launch content on their own Reusability isn’t just a coding principle it’s a mindset that turns AEM into a long-term digital asset, not just a CMS.
