facebook share to pinterest wednesday march 27 2019 understanding sitecore sxa why sxa traditional sitecore implementations have always been a custom build proposition and with each custom build often comes a different approach and methodology how can organizations overcome the cost time and stress involved with a fully custom build once regarded as a small site tool sxa has evolved into an enterprise class framework organizations can embark on projects large and small secure in the knowledge that best practices are already baked into the solution when leveraged to its fullest sxa allows organizations to redefine the process for building and maintaining sites in a way that shortens timelines reduces reliance on development and promotes team collaboration projects are accelerated by utilizing a toolbox of pre built components and by embracing a compressed project cadence that promotes collaboration and brings the work of many teams into a more parallel arrangement your new development process with sxa sitecore itself becomes central to solution development as well as content development bringing together the visual and ux designers content creators back end and front end developers serving as the wireframing tool sxa allows content creators to develop content and construct pages in a wireframe mode as designers and front end developers style the site in parallel these themes are applied iteratively to content being created in flight improved time to value with development and content being developed in parallel project timelines are shortened unexpected conflicts are uncovered as design meets real world content allowing adjustments to be made sooner with a less regressive remediation cycle in a multi site environment content and presentation can be shared across sites streamlining development as additional sites are added lower tco much of the classic development cost for a typical site can be avoided by leveraging the impressive set of components that ship with sxa many tasks once relegated to developers and requiring code deployments are now accomplished in the sitecore ui and simply published page editors have more control over the styling and composition of common presentation components freeing developers to focus on domain specific custom features sxa s framework with strong separation of presentation from design promotes multi site development with heavy re use of components further lowering development cost reduced organizational stress sxa allows organizations to start with a strong foundation using a fully supported and tested framework that makes the entire process more reliable and reduces rework solution structure is consistent across sites making development more predictable and allowing developers to switch between projects with less ramp up time developers are relieved from mundane tasks allowing them to focus on more interesting challenges while content creators are freed from reliance on development to achieve commonplace requirements having fewer code deployments reduces friction and removes barriers to content publishing upgrades become more approachable because less coding means fewer regression issues to remediate next what is sxa home understanding sitecore sxa posted by andy uzick at 7 53 am email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels accelerator experience sitecore sxa understanding sitecore sxa what is sxa previous what is sxa marketers and technologists often struggle with complex implementations faced with a dazzling array of new technologies organizations everywhere are trying to develop a roadmap that fits the right technologies with their business objectives but as many have learned the road to success is often bumpier than expected sxa delivers key features out of the box shifts development away from coding and into ui and provides a reliable framework for execution projects can now start with a fully baked scaffolding that puts mobile first separates presentation from content and already contains a host of presentation components in addition key features like url management and search are already incorporated and the execution methodology is clear and well understood for marketers best practices helix baked in consistent structure of content reduces guesswork start with a stable solution that is poised to grow as needed extensive component suite most of the commonly needed components are ready to go right out of the box search no need to invest in a separate search technology for many common search requirements multi tenant and site host multiple sites in a single infrastructure with selectively shared content and cross site link management layout and rendering flexibility content editors have more control of layout and appearance renderings can be tweaked extended or created without having to wait for development parallel development and content load content pages can be developed in a wireframe mode and style can be applied is it becomes available for technologists best practices habitat baked in avoid costly strategic errors in new projects coders are immediately familiar with existing projects extensive component suite no need to develop commonly used components all pre built components can be styled extended or replaced as needed search fewer technologies to maintain fewer integration points to fail multi tenant and site less infrastructure to maintain better re use of code and consistent deployment strategy layout and rendering flexibility developers focus on new features and capabilities rather than tweaks to existing artifacts fewer regression bugs parallel development and content load front end developers can see real world instances of their design by switching completed pages into their custom theme next rapid start smooth execution home understanding sitecore sxa posted by andy uzick at 7 53 am email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels accelerator experience sitecore sxa understanding sitecore sxa which way to go previous changes to roles and processes when is sxa the right course for a project and when is a conventional build the right way to go the answer is it depends for smaller projects where a conventional sitecore build was too large an undertaking sxa changes the equation by reducing the build time and technical burden customers building smaller sites can now reap the benefits of sitecore s engagement and marketing automation capabilities instead of limiting themselves to a less capable cms tool for large enterprises that face a range of challenges the choice between sxa and a conventional build becomes more nuanced in a development lead culture or where heavy functional functionality is required a conventional build may be best but sxa is a viable even desirable choice for organizations experiencing a digital transformation and orienting to a marketing and business forward approach organizations with a large amount of web presence can use sxa to pace layer their solutions into more manageable groupings that develop at different rates and have different orientations sxa reduces the friction for building smaller more nimble projects an enterprise might have a classic build for portal or corporate sites and an sxa model for brand sites location sites and campaign sites this allows nimble execution for time critical marketing demands alongside a more rigorous model for times when fidelity and precision are crucial for battle scarred managers who have survived painful and expensive builds sxa is a welcome relief those who ve survived those rocky projects in the past would gladly embrace a more prescriptive process that starts with best practices read the full series on sxa understanding sitecore sxa posted by andy uzick at 7 53 am email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels accelerator experience sitecore sxa understanding sitecore sxa changes to roles and processes previous prescriptive yet flexible two of sxa s key benefits are improved project cadence and less reliance on development achieving these goals often means changes in roles and responsibilities development doesn t necessarily mean coding with sxa some of the implementation work that would otherwise be done in back end code is now done in the sitecore ui that doesn t mean that code is written in a sitecore ui but it does mean that some things that would have otherwise required code are now either done in or supplemented by activities in the sitecore ui once upon a time the sitecore ui largely insulated the person in the chair from technical stuff now quite a bit of that technical stuff is managed in ui structuring components was once done entirely in code now this is done largely in sitecore you ll find yourself declaring element tags and css classes creating data queries and using substitution tokens and structuring things akin to models and markup but just because it s managed in ui doesn t mean it doesn t require a technical thinker although much of the methodology shifts from code to configuration developing functionality in sxa is conceptually more akin to development than content management just like in coding an understanding of what can be done and how things work leads to effective solutioning your technical staff is going to change where and how they do a lot of this work and the big benefit is that many things that would otherwise have required a code deployment now just require a publish this will require a shift in thinking for both i t and marketing in the early days of cms it was often hard for i t to accept that content management was now a production activity now they must accept that more things that have been traditionally subjected to development protocols are now becoming production activities as well front end in the loop the role of the front end developer isn t just coding and it isn t just design it s some of both and other things besides since sxa is a framework that manages the methodology for developing both structure and style the front end developer s work becomes part of the sxa flow changes to html structure are done directly in sxa or at times in back end code this may be driven by the need for new renderings or by imperatives the styling process as wireframes and content are developed the entire site or portions of it are exported to a zip file where designers and front end developers extend css and javascript and apply styling using their preferred tools sitecore s creative exchange re imports this zip file detects changes to styling and applies them to the system the styling methodology is constrained by how the sxa framework operates for example html structure and content can t be modified and existing class cannot be removed and sxa injects comments into the html to direct developers as appropriate if desired teams can use creative exchange live to fully automate the export import loop creative exchange can be triggered by a continuous integration server integrating code changes into the main branch and to test changes early and often next which way to go home understanding sitecore sxa posted by andy uzick at 7 52 am email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels accelerator experience sitecore sxa understanding sitecore sxa prescriptive yet flexible previous improved project cadence many marketers and technologists have found that their perspective on a large project can change rapidly as the level of effort and learning curve become increasingly clear the envisioned scope schedule and budget are all threatened as the imagined methodology and cadence meet reality sxa tackles this dilemma by providing a proven structure framework and methodology the aim is to simplify processes increase collaboration shorten timelines and smooth the path to success naturally the maximum benefit is gained by a comprehensive adoption but sxa can be used in an opt in fashion utilizing some of its features and replacing others with more conventional approaches by embracing all of sxa organizations achieve the maximum benefit that they seek from a prescriptive out of the box framework for many organizations however there are aspects to the architecture or build process that need a more custom approach going all in adopting sxa to its fullest doesn t mean giving up customization design customization is an essential part of an sxa build
