Amazon Web Service & Adobe Experience Manager:- A Journey together (Part-3)
In the first & second part we discussed how one day digital market leader meet with the a friend AWS in the Cloud and become very popular pair. Also what gift they bring for the digital marketing persons. Also journey into digital market leader house basement and structure, mainly repository CRX and the way its MK organized.
Now in this we will see how AEM paired with AWS at give a lot of gifts to the digital marketing persons.
AEM deliver great on AWS
There is two ways to pair AEM with AWS
Self/infrastructure Partner managed
AEM managed Service
Self/infrastructure Partner managed :-
As it suggests here two possibility of pairing, first one is Self managed means all the responsibility of deployment, maintenance of infrastructure is owned by organization itself.
its not about only AEM , maintenance patching upgrade etc but AWS also all the maintenance and upgrade etc of AWS also owned by organization.
This model is having a lot of extra effort for the organization owning this.So organizations who don't want to take extra responsibility (or resource who know these maintenance knowledge) and don't want to manage their own deployment of AEM on AWS.
Then they will go for the second suggested way with APN AWS Partner Network. There are several APN as partner to take all the extra responsibility maintenance and upgrade of AWS with advantage customization is optionally available with organization. If organization want some custom or specific enhancement into AEM infrastructure then they can own otherwise partner happily take this responsibility as well.
APNs are specialize in such pairing by providing managed hosting deployments of AEM on AWS.
APNs take care for
1) Deploying
2)Securing
3)maintaining
of AEM . Some APN provide design services and custom development for AEM.
AWS Partner Finder is a tool available to find and compare.

** this is very generic architecture taken from the web , it can be customized according to need.
Now some H/W part of the above aka Architecture Sizing
CPU, and I/O performance is key consideration for any AEM model but it depends on usage.Amazon EC2 General Purpose M5 family of instances are good candidates for these environments.
