TarMK Farm Configuration in 6.x

I was going through AEM 6.1  TarMK setup. Here, we have multiple AEM instances with its own TarMK. Author is setup to replicate changes to all instances while changes in from publish are replicated using reverse replication to author and replication to all instances. 

But the problem here is that AEM 6.1 has stopped reverse replication of UGC and users. Reverse replication only works for pages. So what if I have any component for UGC in AEM implementation. Does that mean, I should never go for farm implementation? Setting up MongoDB is the only option?

You can still use a farm deployment model for your publish instances, however; starting with 6.1, UGC requires the use of Mongo SRP or Adobe SRP. To be clear, the SRP is only for UGC, other site content can continue to reside in the TarMK. More details can be found here - https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-2/administer/communities/srp.html

Also, OOTB, Sling Content Distribution is used to distribute content instead of reverse replication now. https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-2/administer/communities/sync.html

 

To be clear, Sling Content Distribution is used to sync users and user groups across a publish farm.  It is not used for page content nor UGC.  It does not sync users and user groups from publish back to author nor from author to publish.  It is not often the case that publish users (members) should have accounts on author.

UGC requires a shared store - a storage resource provider (SRP).  

In AEM 6.2,  JSRP (JCR SRP)  is suitable for production on a publish cluster, but the UGC will still not be visible on author, so moderation will need to take place on publish.  In order to moderate on author, you need MSRP (MongoDB) or ASRPP (Adobe cloud).

How does this sync work between all TarMK instances? Does enabling Sling Distribution agents, reverse replicates user data to author and then it syncs to other publish instances in farm?  All publish instances run in silos under farm and content syncs using author.
