The future of Adobe Commerce is here, and Adobe has just announced two groundbreaking products that will redefine how businesses operate in the eCommerce space: Adobe Commerce as a Cloud Service and Adobe Commerce Optimizer. Both products, set to launch in June 2025, promise to enhance performance, scalability, and efficiency.
What’s Changing?
1. Adobe Commerce as a Cloud Service
- A fully SaaS-based eCommerce solution.
- Provisioning in minutes, reducing setup time significantly.
- Always up-to-date with Adobe handling updates and patches.
- Performance Boost: High-speed storefronts powered by Edge Delivery Services.
- AI-powered content creation with built-in A/B testing and intuitive editing tools.
- Scalability: Supports 250M SKUs and 30K unique prices per SKU.
- Seamless integration with Adobe Express and Firefly for content creation and merchandising.
2. Adobe Commerce Optimizer
- Works with any eCommerce system (not just Adobe Commerce).
- Enhances storefront experience, catalog, and merchandising.
- Lightning-fast performance with modern UI and AI-powered personalization.
- Pre-built connectors and APIs for easy integration.
- Advanced reporting for tracking improvements and fine-tuning strategies.
Adobe ensures continued support for existing on-premise and PaaS customers, meaning businesses can transition at their own pace. Companies can adopt Adobe Commerce as a Cloud Service all at once or take an incremental approach, starting with specific components like the storefront or catalog.
What This Means for eCommerce?
Adobe’s move towards a SaaS-first approach signals a significant shift in the industry. Companies looking for reduced Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), faster go-to-market strategies, and high-performing storefronts will find Adobe Commerce as a Cloud Service compelling. Meanwhile, Adobe Commerce Optimizer offers a way for businesses to modernize their commerce experience without major platform disruptions.
