Content Delivery Flow content-delivery
The current page details publish service content delivery in AEM as a Cloud Service. Publish service content delivery includes:
- CDN
- AEM Dispatcher
- AEM publisher
The data flow is as follows:
- The URL is added in the browser
- Request made to CDN mapped in DNS to that domain
- If content is fully cached on CDN, CDN serves it to the browser
- If content is not fully cached, the CDN calls out (reverse proxy) to the Dispatcher
- If content is fully cached on Dispatcher, Dispatcher serves it to the CDN
- If content is not fully cached, the Dispatcher calls out (reverse proxy) to the AEM publish
- The content is rendered by the browser, which may also cache it, depending on the headers
By default, the content type HTML/text is set to expire after 30
