Adobe Commerce Cloud offers several new unique solutions to replace or enhance existing features:

Impact on Existing Adobe Commerce Versions
Adobe confirms the continued support and ongoing evolution of existing solutions (PaaS and on-premise), with long-term support assured. Businesses can gradually migrate to the SaaS solution through an incremental approach, allowing them to adopt services like storefronts or catalog management without major disruptions.
This shift to SaaS marks a significant advancement for Adobe, offering merchants the flexibility to modernize their platform gradually while leveraging new technologies to accelerate growth.
