In AEM terminology an “instance” is a copy of AEM running on a server. AEM installations usually involve at least two instances, typically running on separate machines: Author: An AEM instance used to create, upload and edit content and to administer the website.
AEM Author: The Author instance is used to design, create and review the content which will be published on the application in the future. The instance is located inside the organization’s firewall under full protection of the internal network. It provides an easy GUI for the tasks and uses the port 4502 by default.
