Customize OOTB CMS to make Asset Deployments Faster

-
Once the CMS project is created,deploy the project to staging and production. This is a one time activity(adding the assets to the project and deploying) and it will take some time.it had taken a full day to finish this activity for us.

Secondly,once the bad data is removed we can start modify/create/delete data through BCC and go for deployment.We can configure the CA side CMS to be  incremental.It will trigger once you changed a project from 'author' state to
'Ready for staging approval'.

For implementing this way you can customize the editCommerceAssets workflow to inject the custom action.You can add a logic in a way to switch b/w 'CA side incremental CMS' or 'ATG OOTB CMS'

Unable to access the selected application Exception in AppMerge flows progression Bean already exists "weblogic.j2ee.descriptor.ModuleBeanImpl@..../Modules[weblogic.descriptor.internal.Descriptor.Beankey@....] This issue can happen in many scenarios, may be you need to check your deployment descriptors based on Application Servers used, this generally happens due to issue in XML files related to deployment.
