When Edge Delivery is a good fit
A pilot tests fit with your own pages, so you do not have to guess.
| Content type | Fit | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Marketing, product and solution pages | Strong | Content-led pages where speed and fast publishing matter most. |
| Campaign and landing pages | Strong | Authors can publish quickly without developer help. |
| Documentation and resource centers | Strong | Structured content that benefits from speed. |
| Multi-brand sites | Strong | Pilot one brand, then roll out brand by brand. |
| Highly personalized or transactional experiences | Plan carefully | These may stay on your current platform while content-led pages move. A pilot confirms the split. |

How long does an Edge Delivery pilot take?
A proof of concept runs about three weeks, and the environment stays available for hands-on use for up to three weeks afterward. See the scope and timeline.
How much does an AEM Sites implementation cost?
An AEM Sites launch ranges from $60,000 to $150,000 over about 2 to 4 months. It may be billed hourly or as a fixed fee. What affects the price: The number of sites, page templates, components and pages being built or migrated. Multi-brand and multi-region programs need shared governance, templates and permissions that single-brand programs do not. Connections to commerce, CRM, marketing automation, identity or analytics systems add integration and testing effort. Formal security, accessibility and privacy reviews, common in government, health and financial services, add time to plan and document. A proof of concept can reduce the uncertainty first.
