This presentation is about custom machine translation in AEM. It takes OOTB Microsoft Translator as reference. This is developer-centric and contains code snippets of Microsoft Translation

1. Extending Machine Translation in AEM
Vivek Sachdeva

2. Agenda
• What all is needed for translation?
• Where is the configuration?
• Developing Custom Connector
• Comparison with OOTB MS Translator
• Translation Workflows Decoded

3. Goal of this Session
To understand how a custom language translator
can be developed by comparing it with OOTB MS
Translator.

4. What all is needed for Translation...

5. • A Translation Vendor – This is typically a cloud
service where vendor related information is stored.
Eg : Microsoft, Beebox.
• A mechanism to send content to translation system
• A mechanism to import content back to AEM

6. Where is the configuration?

7. Translator Cloud Service

8. Translation Integration Cloud Service

9. Mapping Translation Service to Site

10. How do I develop a custom connector?

11. ● Create an implementation class for
TranslationServiceFactory interface
https://github.com/viveksachdeva/machin
e-translation-aem/blob/master/bundle/sr
c/main/java/com/tothenew/impl/MyTransla
tionServiceFactoryImpl.java
● It creates instance of service that does
translation plus it defines language and
category configuration for machine
translation

13. ● Create an implementation class for
TranslationService interface that extends
AbstractTranslationService
https://github.com/viveksachdeva/machin
e-translation-aem/blob/master/bundle/sr
c/main/java/com/tothenew/impl/MyTransla
tionServiceImpl.java
● It includes utilities required for
translation like getting source page
language, translating content, caching
translated content

14. Comparison with OOTB MS Translator...

15. Creating Translation Service from Factory

16. Getting Language Prop Map for AEM-Vendor Lang Mapping

17. Detecting Source Content Language

18. Caching Translated Content

19. Getting Translated Content

21. Translation Workflows Decoded

22. Language Copy Creation
● Calls CreateLanguageCopyProcess that internally
calls TranslateLanguageCopyProcess

23. Language Copy Creation(Contd...)

24. Language Copy Updation
● Calls CreateLanguageCopyLaunchProcess that
uses LaunchManager API to create launch but at
the same time does not create target language
copy

25. Language Copy Updation(Contd..)
