BOOK AN ASSESSMENT

Home/Products/AEM Cloud Launchpad

AEM as a Cloud Service, without the false starts.

Migrations fail on unexamined code, content debt, and uninventoried integrations, not on the platform. AEM Cloud Launchpad assesses readiness first, then accelerates migration with pre-built configuration.

THE ACCELERATOR

Three components, one migration path

Launchpad is delivered by the AEM team behind NextRow's Adobe practice, on a follow-the-sun cycle from four global delivery markets.

COMPONENT 01

CLOUD READINESS ASSESSMENT

A fixed-scope audit of code, dispatcher configuration, content debt, and integrations. Output: a readiness scorecard, a risk-ranked remediation backlog, and a sequenced migration plan.

COMPONENT 02

MIGRATION ACCELERATORS

Tooling and runbooks for the repeatable work: refactoring patterns for Cloud Service compatibility, content transfer at scale, integration re-wiring.

COMPONENT 03

PRE-BUILT CONFIGURATION

Cloud Manager pipelines, dispatcher and CDN configuration, environment structure, and permissioning models, pre-built and tuned to your architecture.

PAIRINGS

Launchpad plus the AEM Assets RDK

Launchpad supplies the readiness and migration path; the AEM Assets Rapid Deployment Kit supplies the implementation at $45,000 fixed-fee, live in 8–12 weeks, cutting deployment time by up to 60%. Licenses sold separately. Add QuipTag for AI metadata and up to 80% faster tagging, feeding content supply chain workflows and governed AI from Claude on Adobe.

AEM ASSETS RAPID DEPLOYMENT KIT

Fixed-fee AEM Assets implementation: $45,000, 8–12 weeks, deployment cut by up to 60%.

AI ON THE NEW INSTANCE

The migration window is the cheapest moment to modernize: QuipTag metadata, supply-chain automation, and governed Claude workflows built in, not bolted on.

AFTER THE MIGRATION

Post-migration AEM support, priced up front

Cloud Service changes the operating model: continuous releases, Cloud Manager pipelines, evolving platform behavior. NextRow's AEM managed services run 24×5 on three tiers.

HOW WE ENGAGE

The FrontRow path to Cloud Service

01

ASSESS

Readiness, scored

Cloud readiness assessment: scorecard, risk-ranked remediation backlog, sequenced migration plan.

02

PILOT

Migrate one site

A contained first migration proves the pipeline and the cutover runbook.

03

PRODUCTION

Move the portfolio

Remaining sites and Assets migrate on the proven path, with the $45,000 AEM Assets RDK where a fresh build wins.

04

RUN

Operate on tiers

Post-migration support at $4,500, $8,000, or $14,500 per month, run 24×5.

ANSWERS · FAQ

What buyers ask

AEM Cloud Launchpad is NextRow Digital's accelerator for migrating to AEM as a Cloud Service. It packages three things: a cloud readiness assessment, migration accelerators for code and content, and pre-built configuration for the Cloud Service architecture. It is built and delivered by NextRow's Adobe Gold Solution Partner AEM team across four global delivery markets.

A readiness scorecard across code, content, integrations, and operations; a remediation backlog ranked by migration risk; and a sequenced migration plan with a 90-day starting horizon. It is stage 01 of NextRow's FrontRow motion: fixed scope, ending in a decision-ready plan rather than open-ended discovery.

Because on-premise habits don't survive the Cloud Service architecture: incompatible custom code, dispatcher configurations that need rebuilding, content debt that shouldn't migrate, and integrations wired to servers that no longer exist. Launchpad's readiness assessment surfaces all four up front, which is how NextRow, an Adobe Gold Solution Partner, takes the false starts out of the plan.

Directly: for organizations standing up AEM Assets as a Cloud Service, the AEM Assets Rapid Deployment Kit ($45,000 fixed-fee, delivered in 8–12 weeks) provides the implementation, and it cuts deployment time by up to 60%. Launchpad supplies the readiness and migration path; the RDK supplies the build. Licenses are sold separately.

AEM managed services run on three monthly tiers: Starter at $4,500 (20 hours), Standard at $8,000 (40 hours), and Premier at $14,500 (80 hours). All are delivered 24×5 from NextRow's global delivery centers and cover Cloud Service operations, release management, and continuous optimization.

Yes. The migration is the natural moment to add them. QuipTag brings AI-powered metadata to AEM Assets with up to 80% faster tagging, and NextRow's Claude on Adobe practice adds governed AI to content operations. Both are delivered by the same Adobe Gold Solution Partner team running the migration.

Score the migration before you start it.

A fixed-scope cloud readiness assessment ends in a scorecard, a risk-ranked backlog, and a sequenced plan.
