Adobe Experience Manager: Cloud Service | Product Description

Effective: 9 September, 2024

AEM Sites is a content management and experience delivery system to help Customer create, manage, and deliver the right content to any digital property.

AEM Sites: Product Limitations

• Content Requests. Customer may use up to the number of Content Requests authorized in the Sales Order. If Customer exceeds the sum of the Content Requests licensed during a 12-month period at any time, Customer must license additional Content Requests.
  • By default, Adobe includes a Content Delivery Network (CDN) as part of AEM Sites, which gives Adobe insight into Customer’s Content Requests usage.
  • If Customer instead chooses to configure and use its own CDN, Adobe may not have insight into Customer’s Content Requests usage. Accordingly, Customer agrees to provide Adobe with a measurement report two months prior to the end of each 12-month period of the License Term sufficient to verify Customer’s actual annual Content Requests usage. Such report will contain the total number of Content Requests per month for the applicable year. Customer’s use of Adobe’s Real User Monitoring service to generate such reports will suffice for the Page Views portion of Content Requests only (not API Calls). Customer may use CDN-level reports or server-side web analytics tools instead. However, Customer cannot use reports that rely on end user consent, such as client-side web analytics reports, to fulfill this requirement; such reports do not reflect all Content Request usage because they only reflect traffic when end user consent is provided.
• Concurrent Users. The Author Tier of AEM Sites includes a limited number of Concurrent Users. Customer may use the below number of AEM Sites Author Tier users:
  • up to 20 Concurrent Users with AEM Sites licensed up to 5 million Content Requests; or
  • up to 40 Concurrent Users with AEM Sites licensed for 5 million or more Content Requests.
• Environments. Customer may deploy 1 Production Environment, 1 Stage Environment, 1 Development Environment, and 1 Rapid Development Environment, all sharing the same code repository.
• Edge Delivery Services for AEM Sites. For Customers that license Edge Delivery Services for AEM Sites, the following applies:
  • Customer must bring its own compatible code repositories to use with Edge Delivery Services for AEM Sites. The list of compatible code repositories is set forth in the Documentation. Each compatible code repository configured for Edge Delivery Services for AEM Sites includes 1 Edge Delivery Services Publish Tier and 1 Edge Delivery Services Preview Tier. Customer acknowledges that the code repositories it brings for use with Edge Delivery Services for AEM Sites may have features allowing the repositories, and their code and contents, to be made public or visible to others (for example, if Customer marks its repository “public” or similar within the third-party repository platform). Customer is solely responsible for controlling the visibility of and access to its code repositories.
  • In connection with Edge Delivery Services for AEM Sites, Adobe may provide Customer a direct line of communication to Adobe through an online collaboration channel. Adobe recommends using such channel to facilitate timely collaboration with Adobe regarding Edge Delivery Services for AEM Sites. There are no service levels associated with communications or collaboration with Adobe via such channel (e.g., no guaranteed response times or resolutions).
  • Customer may use Storage up to 1 terabyte for Edge Delivery Services.
  • When Customer has not licensed AEM Forms, Customer’s use of form-related functionality within AEM Sites is limited to authoring forms in a compatible third-party spreadsheet and submitting back forms data to the same spreadsheets. Customer must bring its own compatible third-party spreadsheet products to use these features. The list of such compatible third-party spreadsheet products is available in the Documentation. Customer must separately license AEM Forms for any other AEM Forms functionality, including but not limited to usage of Adaptive Form Block, server-side extensions, backend services, custom extensions related to processing of submitted forms (e.g. Document of Record, e-signatures, workflows etc.), and advanced Forms capabilities like bot protection using Captcha, advanced Forms analytics, experimentation and personalization.
    
• Generate Variations (feature). Customers that license Edge Delivery Services for AEM Sites may use this feature. Generate variations is a Generative AI Feature. Customer may use 1,000 Generative Actions per year to generate variants for every 1,000,000 licensed Content Requests per month (pro-rated if receiving this feature in the middle of a current license term). One Generation using the text-based variations feature within AEM Sites (in any environment, i.e. Production, Stage, or Development Environments) consumes one Generative Action. If Customer exceeds its allotted Generative Actions, Customer must purchase additional Generative Actions.  For image Generation effected through the variations feature (a) Customer must have an existing license  for image Generation  using Adobe Firefly provisioned to the same IMS Org ID (see here for information on IMS Org IDs), and (b) such existing license (not the license for AEM nor Customer’s entitlements for Generative Actions) governs use and overuse thereof.
• 99.99% SLA. Customers purchasing the standalone AEM Sites 99.99% SLA license receive a base AEM Sites program, AEM Sites Edge Delivery Services, one Additional Publish Region add-on, and the 99.99% SLA add-on. Customer must apply both the Additional Publish Region add-on and the 99.99% SLA add-on to the same AEM Sites program to receive the 99.99% SLA, as further described in the Actionability Addendum available here: https://www.adobe.com/legal/service-commitments.html. Customer may not apply the aforementioned add-ons to other AEM programs.
• Network capacity. Where the monthly size average of all licensed Content Requests exceeds 10 MB payload per request, Customer must license additional network capacity.
• Storage. Customer may use Storage up to 1 terabyte for the Production Environment, 1 terabyte for the Stage Environment, 200 gigabytes for the Development Environment, and 200 gigabytes for the Rapid Development Environment.
• Additional Capabilities. AEM Sites includes a license to use Content Fragments, Media Library, and Experience Fragments, all of which are part of the AEM Assets user interface.

The out-of-the-box, non-customized AEM Sites and AEM Forms deployed as a Cloud Service have been scoped to support a specified number of Concurrent Users (as detailed in the description of AEM Sites and AEM Forms) based on the average User-driven load placed on the Production Environment. If the number of Concurrent Users at any point exceeds the number of Concurrent Users specified in the description of AEM Sites or AEM Forms, or Customer’s average User-driven load placed on the Production Environment exceeds Adobe’s pre-scoped average, Customer may experience performance limitations during authoring activity. If Customer’s average User-driven load placed on the Production Environment is less than Adobe’s pre-scoped average, Customers’ AEM Sites or AEM Forms deployment may support more than the specified number of Concurrent Users (as detailed in the description AEM Sites and AEM Forms).

Content Requests are counted either as a Page View or 5 API Calls, measured at the ingress of the first caching system to receive a Content Request.
