FAST BACKEND FOR AEM EDGE DELIVERY
You don't have to choose between dynamic content and 100/100 performance. StreamX helps you build Edge Delivery Services sites that stay lightning-fast while showing data form multiple backend sources.
DO MORE WITH EDS
You can leverage the advantages of Edge Delivery Services: perfect page performance, fast development and cost-effectiveness, for more than just simple websites.
StreamX is specifically designed to address the challenges of building complex, data-driven websites. It makes it possible to keep the Edge Delivery promise of 100/100 performance even when data on the site comes from multiple backend systems.
THE SOLUTION
how it works
StreamX listens to source systems for real-time data changes; then pushes updates to the delivery layer. The client side doesn't need to request anything from backend.
why it matters
When data is handled in dedicated layer, the page speed is no longer dependent on the availability and responsiveness of all the backend systems involved.
how it works
In StreamX, different source systems feed data into a unified data layer, where it is integrated according to predefined business logic and then pushed to the delivery layer.
why it matters
To integrate, you only edit connectors and set up business logic, without developing custom code every time. With more connectors, more work gets repeatable.
how it works
StreamX comes with a pre-configured set of connectors, blueprints, microservices and data pipelines - a "jump start" that fits the most common web development use cases.
why it matters
You can quickly launch the website and take advantage of EDS time-to-market and performance, without taking months to develop the backend.
how it works
Developers that use StreamX work on higher-level abstractions, like composing functions into workflows, without managing the complexities of the underlying layer.
why it matters
This way developers can focus more on business logic, experiment and iterate with ease and speed, building custom real-time functions in days - instead of months.
Even with a move to AEM Edge Delivery (Helix), or even on an entirely non-Adobe backend, one is still faced with the problem of how to architect around the availability and performance of backend systems that you now have to stitch together at the CLIENT side.
That’s where StreamX (...) can be used as a potential for dramatically increasing speed and reliability for complicated web/mobile experiences.

USE CASES
StreamX makes it possible to enrich your EDS site with data from all available sources - including legacy systems - without ever compromising page speed and performance.
HOW IT WORKS
StreamX sits between Edge Delivery Services and backend data sources, processing and delivering data in real time and eliminating the need for client-side experience composition.
Real-time processing
Real-time delivery
Horizontal scalability
Unified Data Layer
Instead of relying on the user's browser to fetch and assemble data from various backend systems, StreamX acts as an middle layer, processing the data as soon as a change occurs in any of the connected systems.
StreamX generates experiences ahead of demand and distributes them to lightweight servers close to users, ensuring rapid delivery and eliminating the latency associated with fetching data from distant sources.
StreamX is built on a microservices architecture, allowing it to scale horizontally to accommodate increasing data volumes and traffic. Individual services that contribute to a EDS site can be scaled independently to keep high performance even under heavy load.
StreamX can aggregate data from multiple different sources, such as AEM, PIM or Google docs, and transform them into a consistent and readily consumable format. This simplifies data access for EDS sites, removing the need to interact with each backend system individually.

BUILT BY AEM VETERANS
In our 15+ years in Digital Experience Platforms development, we've seen CMSs used for everything - from managing product catalogs to printing airline boarding passes - and how this leads to complex, hard to maintain architectures.
That’s why we've created StreamX - so you can offload the heavy lifting of content delivery and dynamic data handling to a smart, efficient layer.
