Exploring content distribution as a service
Hi,
At Adobe we rely on journal based content distribution [0] for AEM in the
cloud. We would like to explore with the idea of providing content
distribution as a service.
We are planning to work on that service under the Sling umbrella and think
of leveraging the existing journal based content distribution bundles [1].
This effort will likely require refactoring the code and the bundle
dependencies. We will strive to keep backward compatibility and plan to
evaluate the feasibility in branches for the existing modules.
If the Sling community is fine with this, we'd start prototyping the
service in the Sling whiteboard [2].
Regards,
Timothee

Hi Dirk,
The service would expose distribution queues via a REST API. Primary
consumers will be Sling Content Distribution agents. The API could
eventually be used for other use cases but it's not an immediate goal.

Hi Timothee,
that sounds great, indeed. Is a Sling as source, the Kafka journal as messaging system and anything like solr as sink, what you have in mind?
In the past I tried to implement a distribution with Solr as sink, which unfortunately was more complicated than I thought initially.
Regards,
Dirk

Sounds like a great plan to me, the whiteboard is here for that!
