Introduction to extensibility
Many rendition requirements such as converting to formats and resizing images are addressed by Processing Profiles in Experience Manager as a Cloud Service. More complex business requirements may need a custom-created solution that suits an organization’s needs. Asset Compute Service can be extended by creating custom applications that are called from Processing Profiles in Experience Manager. These custom applications cater to the supported use cases.
NOTEThe custom applications are headless Adobe Developer App Builder apps. Extending Asset Compute Service with custom applications is made simple through the Asset Compute SDK and Adobe Developer App Builder developer tooling. These tools let developers focus on business logic. Creating custom applications is as simple as creating a plain serverless Adobe I/O Runtime action. It is a single Node.js JavaScript function. The basic custom application example illustrates it.
