AEM SITES: DEFINITIONS

AEM Deployment means an independent Author Instance or linked cluster of Author
Instances, with any number of connected Publish Instances.

AEM Sites Base Package means 1 Author Instance, 1 Publish Instance, and an
unlimited number of Dispatcher Instances.

Annual Page View Traffic means the sum of the Page Views during a 12 month
period.

Asset Share Feature means the subset of AEM Assets functionality that
facilitates the distribution of Customer’s digital assets stored within AEM
Assets to internal and external groups via an “Asset Share Page” (i.e., a page
used to search assets based on associated metadata).  Access to the Asset Share
Page is not limited to Users.

Author Instance means the environment where Users can enter and manage the
content of Customer’s website.

Brand Portal User means an individual who may use or access the Brand Portal
user interface. Brand Portal Users licenses may not be used concurrently (i.e.,
the same login ID may not be used by more than one User or Computer at a
discrete moment in time) or by multiple Users.

Content Fragment means a unit of structured content with content elements whose
interrelationships are defined in a content model.

Custom Event means an event generated and published by Customer through Adobe
Developer App Builder to integrate with Adobe applications in a bi-directional
flow. Each Custom Event payload is limited to 64KB.

Dispatcher Instance means the environment for the caching or load balancing tool
for a dynamic web authoring environment. For caching, the Dispatcher Instance
works as part of an HTTP server that caches as much of the static website
content as possible and accesses the website's layout engine as infrequently as
possible. In a load-balancing role, the Dispatcher Instance distributes load
across different clustered Instances.

Instance means one copy of the On-premise Software instantiated and running
within a java virtual machine process on one physical Computer or virtual
environment. Each Instance can be designated as either an Author Instance or
Publish Instance, but each will be counted separately as one Instance.

Invocation means an action that takes place in 0.5 seconds using 1 gigabyte
memory space.

Media Library means the following functionalities available in AEM Assets for
use at the individual digital asset level: storage of digital assets in support
of Customer’s web content management system and enterprise document and form use
cases; managing metadata properties under the Properties Basic tab; accessing
the Timeline features (including viewing Comments, managing asset Versions,
starting Workflows and viewing Activities); adding comments via the Annotate
icon; managing static Renditions; and Creative Cloud file sharing via the Share
Link. Use of any other features of AEM Assets requires a full AEM Assets
license.

Page View means a single view of an email or web page of an internet site,
including application screen views, application screen states, mobile web pages,
and social network pages.  Page Views are counted when a web page is loaded or
refreshed, an application is loaded, or when content renders or is shown through
an opened or viewed email, and it triggers activity at the origin service. With
respect solely to Dynamic Media, (a) Page Views are further counted any time a
request triggers activity at the origin and/or cache service, and (b) Page Views
are counted on all of Customer’s internet sites, applications, mobile web pages,
and social network pages, irrespective of Dynamic Media use.


Primary Server Call means each page view, exit link, download, customer link, or
other event on the Customer Site(s) to the extent that Customer tags, allows to
be tagged, or causes to be tagged such page views, exit links, downloads, custom
links, and other events for purposes of accessing and using Adobe Analytics
