Adobe Experience Manager Upgrade Services

Welcome to Associative, where we transform visionary ideas into scalable digital realities. As an official Adobe Bronze Solution Partner, we possess the verified expertise to guide your enterprise through complex content management transformations.

Staying competitive in the digital landscape requires more than just maintenance; it requires evolution. Our Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) upgrade services are designed to help businesses seamlessly transition from legacy versions (AEM 6.x) to the latest AEM on-premise solutions or migrate directly to AEM as a Cloud Service.

Why Choose Associative for Your AEM Upgrade?

Upgrading AEM is a complex engineering challenge that involves code refactoring, content migration, and infrastructure realignment. At Associative, we combine regulatory compliance with high-level technical engineering to ensure zero data loss and minimal downtime.

1. Certified Adobe Expertise

As an Adobe Bronze Solution Partner, our proficiency is validated by Adobe. We follow best practices for the Adobe ecosystem, ensuring your upgrade aligns with the latest security standards and feature sets.

2. Comprehensive Migration Strategy

We handle the full lifecycle of the upgrade process:

Assessment & Audit: Analyzing your current instance (AEM 6.3, 6.4, 6.5) for deprecated APIs and custom code compatibility.
Code Refactoring: Upgrading Java (OSGi services), updating Maven dependencies, and refactoring front-end code (React/Angular) to match the latest Core Components.
Content Transfer: Secure migration of assets and repository content using modern tools.
Cloud Transition: Expertise in moving from on-premise/managed services to AEM as a Cloud Service (AEMaaCS).

3. Full-Stack Technical Mastery

Our team utilizes a massive landscape of technologies to ensure the success of your upgrade:

Back-End: Deep expertise in Java (Spring Boot, Jakarta EE), OSGi, Apache Sling, and JCR.
Front-End: Advanced implementation of AEM SPA Editor using React, Angular, Vue.js, and Next.js.
DevOps & Cloud: Robust CI/CD pipelines using Cloud Manager, Docker, Kubernetes, and Jenkins across AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure environments.

Operational Excellence & Transparency

We operate with unyielding transparency and a client-centric approach. Headquartered in Pune, Maharashtra, we are formally registered with the Registrar of Firms (ROF), ensuring you are working with a compliant and stable entity.

Flexible Engagement Models

Detailed Reporting: Invoices are submitted daily, weekly, or on a milestone basis with complete transparency.
Flexible Hours: Engagement models range from a minimum of 3 hours to a maximum of 9 hours per day.

Strict NDAs: We adhere to rigorous non-disclosure agreements.
Privacy: We do not share client projects or maintain a public portfolio, ensuring your strategic upgrades remain confidential.
