Creating Custom Data Importer Services for Adobe Experience Manager

You can develop a custom data importer service for Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) that lets you import data. To address some business requirments, importing external data into your AEM site is an important use case. For example, you can import data from an external social media site. In this development article, a cus­tom node type, cq:PollConfig, is used to import data at a specific inter­val.
