Integrating AEM into application servers and web servers

A client’s site fails to display the most recent page content for some site visitors. The client operates two data centers, each configured with a Dispatcher connected to two Publish machines. The load issue occurs only intermittently for visitors from one data center.

Which action should the Architect take to resolve the issue?

Explanation

AEM Dispatcher serves cached content and retrieves a newly rendered page from its attached Publish instance when the cached content is invalid. Because the stale-content behavior is isolated to one data center, the relevant fault domain is that data center’s Dispatcher and its connected Publish instances; an unavailable or out-of-date Publish instance can intermittently return older content. Adobe documents that Dispatcher uses Publish instances for rendering and that cache invalidation is required when content is activated.
