Adobe Commerce as a Cloud Service: A Deep Dive into the Future of Commerce
We’ll begin with a few slides to explain the theoretical foundation and ensure a solid understanding of the overall concept.
This includes an overview of the architecture of ACCS, Storefront (with drop-ins & slots), EDS, and App Builder. Also, we…
- We’ll also give a comparative view of Traditional CIF vs. Cloud-based Commerce Integration.
- We’ll show how GenAI can support content creation and explain how A/B testing is integrated into the process.
- We’ll highlight the difference between Product Visuals and Adobe Experience Manager Assets.
In addition, we’ll dive into the following technical topics, our main part, supported by code examples from our project:
- How authors can modify storefront content using Document Authoring (da.live).
- How developers can work with the AIO CLI and Adobe Developer Console.
- How to extend the Storefront using JavaScript, blocks and drop-in slots.
- How to connect an external, product-specific data source, including:
- Extending GraphQL queries using Mesh Extensibility.
- Demonstrating GraphQL calls in Postman.
- How to trigger Runtime Actions (App Builder) using events from Commerce.
- How to (and why) set up synchronous webhooks.
Finally, we’ll share our lessons learned and best practices from hands-on R&D throughout the project.
