Preparing Adobe Experience Manager as a Cloud Service for high-traffic events
This article provides best practices for preparing your Adobe Experience Manager as a Cloud Service environment for high-traffic events, focusing on maintaining proxy tunnel stability and minimizing service interruptions.
Description description
Organizations may host large-scale registration or campaign events that generate significant traffic to their Adobe Experience Manager as a Cloud Service (AEM Cloud) environments. During these periods, it is important to ensure production infrastructure stability and uninterrupted operation of the proxy tunnel.
High-traffic events can increase the risk of performance degradation, proxy tunnel interruptions, or registration failures. Proactive planning and monitoring help reduce these risks.
Resolution resolution
Follow the steps below to prepare your environment for high-traffic events:
-
Gather event details in advance, including event dates, time zones, expected peak traffic or registration volume, peak activity windows, and affected environment details.
-
Review your AEM Cloud environment’s current capacity and ensure that all recent code deployments have been tested and stabilized before the event.
-
Monitor your environment during the event using available self-service tools, such as:
- Reviewing system health dashboards in Cloud Manager for traffic spikes, error rates, and resource utilization.
- Monitoring application logs for errors or warnings related to proxy tunnel connectivity or performance.
-
Ensure that your internal stakeholders are aware of the event and have clear escalation paths in case issues arise.
-
After the event, review system performance and logs for any anomalies or issues that may have occurred during peak traffic periods.
