#### **Description**

### Use Kontainer DAM with Adobe Experience Manager

Many organizations use Adobe Experience Manager as a CMS and content platform for websites, campaigns, and digital experiences. At the same time, digital assets are often scattered across multiple systems.

By integrating Adobe Experience Manager with Kontainer DAM, you get a single, centralized place to manage all digital files—while content is automatically made available in your CMS.

API-based integration enables you to:

- Synchronize files from Kontainer to Adobe Experience Manager in real time or on demand

- Ensure that only approved and up-to-date assets are used in publishing

- Preserve metadata, structure, and relationships between files

- Automate workflows for updating and distributing content

Kontainer acts as a “Single Source of Truth,” while Adobe Experience Manager delivers content across your digital channels.

#### **API Integration**

### Why an AEM – Kontainer DAM integration?

Adobe Experience Manager is strong for content management and publishing, but it is not necessarily designed as a dedicated, full-featured DAM system.

By combining AEM with Kontainer, you get the best of both worlds:

- Kontainer handles structure, metadata, and asset governance

- AEM handles content delivery and digital experiences

Kontainer’s API makes it possible to integrate directly with CMS platforms like AEM and ensure automatic data exchange, synchronization, and updating of files without manual processes.
