Adobe Commerce as a Cloud Service: What to Expect from the June Release

• It’s real and accessible. Adobe confirms it’s live, fast, and ready to deploy instantly. You can have a new environment up and running in minutes. I’m excited to see that practical application & what will happen beyond the that initial setup after general release

‍

• Speed and Performance: Adobe’s early tests indicate significant performance gains, suggesting improvements in site conversion rates and better SEO.

‍

• Flexible Storefront: Adobe highlights the new storefront as optional. If you already have a headless storefront, Adobe Commerce as a Service integrates easily.

‍

• Continued Support for PaaS: Adobe reassures existing Magento or Adobe Commerce (Platform as a Service) users that their setups aren’t going anywhere. Adobe confirms ongoing support, with updates delivered from a shared mainline codebase, preventing typical new-system challenges.

‍

• Enhanced Features: Adobe Commerce as a Service includes enhanced image management, personalisation capabilities, and advanced A/B testing and experimentation tools.

‍

• Admin Interface Overhaul: Adobe promises a major upgrade to the Magento backend, replacing the existing admin UI with a streamlined, intuitive interface that integrates seamlessly with Adobe’s latest personalisation and experimentation features.

‍

• B2B Functionality in Progress: Initially, Adobe is focusing on retail, but B2B features will follow shortly after, addressing previous gaps in Adobe’s B2B offerings.

‍

• Community Feedback: Adobe notes that community reaction has been cautiously optimistic and positive, highlighting enthusiasm around speed, reduced costs, and clear future direction.
