Overview
One of the most popular managed-hosting options for Adobe Commerce on AWS is offered by Adobe Commerce itself. Adobe Commerce on cloud infrastructure is a fully managed automated hosting platform for the Adobe Commerce software.
Adobe Commerce on cloud infrastructure is a platform-as-a-service (PaaS) offering that enables rapid deployment of fully customizable, secure, and scalable web storefronts combined with a leading hosting and Managed Services infrastructure. It offers two plans with different infrastructures. Adobe Commerce Starter plans are best suited for smaller stores with less complexity and smaller catalogs. Adobe Commerce Pro plans are designed for larger stores with more complexity, larger product catalogs, or traffic that peaks. Adobe determines the appropriate architecture with input from partners.
Adobe Commerce is cloud-ready with a fully redundant multi-cloud hosting infrastructure that provides optimized performance, resilience, and elastic scalability. You can efficiently run your commerce platform on Fastly’s content delivery network (CDN), and with New Relic for monitoring and management you can keep your store environment running smoothly.
Adobe Commerce offers all the benefits of modern cloud computing that are most commonly associated with SaaS solutions while still maintaining flexibility in software customization:
- Elastic scalability
- High resilience and availability
- PCI compliance
- Global availability and automated patching
