AEM & Adobe
AEM Audits: Solution Analysis & Optimization
An AEM audit finds out why your Adobe Experience Manager platform is slow, fragile or expensive to change, so you spend budget on the fixes that matter. We examine architecture, code, dispatcher and CDN caching, content structure and the build pipeline, then give you evidence, a ranked fix plan and, if you want, the fixes themselves.
Who it's for
Performance problems in AEM almost always have a concrete cause: a cache that is bypassed, a component that queries too much, an architectural shortcut that made sense years ago. Guessing leads to expensive changes that do not help. Measuring first does.
- Teams whose AEM pages are slow for visitors or authors without a clear root cause.
- Organisations planning an upgrade or migration who want to know the state of their codebase first.
- New owners of an AEM platform inherited from another agency.
What you get
- An architecture and code review, including custom components, services and OSGi configuration.
- A dispatcher, CDN and caching analysis with hit-rate measurements.
- A review of content and repository structure, including queries and indexes.
- A review of the build and deployment pipeline.
- A written report with findings ranked by impact and effort, plus before-and-after benchmarks for any fixes we make.
What do we examine?
- the full system and architecture, including custom code and configuration
- AEM performance: dispatcher, caching, CDN and slow components
- bottlenecks in content delivery and in build and deployment pipelines
- architecture and technology recommendations for the next steps
- before-and-after benchmarks that prove each improvement
Slow builds are a common finding; see faster builds in AEM with Maven Daemon.
How it works
01
Tell us the problem
What takes too long, what breaks, or what you want to launch.
02
Agree the first step
Together we pick the smallest piece of work that makes a real difference.
03
Build
We build in short iterations and show progress after each iteration.
04
Handover
Documented, deployed and yours, with optional ongoing care.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a project like this cost?
It depends on scope, so we do not publish fixed prices. After a short scoping call you get a written proposal: a fixed price for well-defined work, a phased quote when parts are still unclear, or time and materials for ongoing work. The start date is agreed in the proposal.
What access do you need?
Read access to the code repository, a non-production environment that mirrors production, and the dispatcher and CDN configuration. Production access is only needed for measurements you approve.
Do you fix the issues too?
If you want. You can implement the fixes with your own team using the report, or ask us to handle the high-impact items.
Is an audit useful before an AEM as a Cloud Service migration?
Yes. It shows which parts of the code need refactoring and which problems you would otherwise carry into the new platform.
How long does an audit take?
It depends on the size of the platform. The quote after the scoping call sets the scope and the delivery date before any work starts.
