- Adobe Commerce on cloud infrastructure
- The PaaS edition, which Adobe's feature comparison describes as single-tenant with manual upgrade and patching. Includes Fastly, a Galera database cluster, GlusterFS storage, and the ece-tools pipeline.
- Adobe Commerce as a Cloud Service
- The SaaS edition, which Adobe's feature comparison describes as multi-tenant and automatically upgraded through a versionless model. Adobe states it does not support Luma storefronts and that customization is out-of-process only.
- Pro and Starter
- The two plans of Adobe Commerce on cloud infrastructure. Adobe's Fastly page states the web application firewall is available on Pro and Starter Production environments only; its architecture page documents Pro production as three virtual machines.
- Fastly
- The CDN and edge service Adobe includes on cloud infrastructure at no additional cost, covering caching, WAF, DDoS protection, origin cloaking, image optimization, and TLS certificates, per Adobe's Fastly page.
- VCL snippet
- A piece of Varnish configuration language uploaded to Fastly to change caching behavior. Adobe documents its custom VCL snippets as Varnish 2.1 compliant, which is why they do not port unchanged to a self-hosted Varnish.
- Web application firewall (WAF)
- The Fastly-provided firewall on Adobe's cloud, available on Pro and Starter Production environments only. Off Adobe's cloud, a replacement has to be chosen and configured.
- Galera cluster
- The database cluster Adobe documents for Pro production, with one MariaDB MySQL database per node and an auto-increment setting of three for unique IDs across every database.
- Auto-increment of three
- The setting that makes entity and order IDs advance in threes on Adobe's Pro cloud. After a move to a single-writer database, new IDs advance by one, which affects any system keyed on contiguous increment_id.
- GlusterFS
- The file server Adobe documents on Pro cloud infrastructure for static file deployments and synchronization, with four directory mounts: var, pub/media, pub/static, and app/etc.
- ece-tools
- Adobe's package of scripts and tools for managing and deploying the Commerce application on cloud infrastructure, with build, deploy, and post-deploy commands run from the hooks property of .magento.app.yaml.
- .magento.app.yaml
- The configuration file on Adobe's cloud whose hooks property runs the ece-tools build, deploy, and post-deploy commands. It describes a platform that stops existing at cutover for a store leaving.
- Remote Storage module
- The Adobe Commerce feature, for version 2.4.2 and later, that moves media to Amazon S3. Adobe states its sync command migrates pub/media only, not the import and export files in var, and that support on cloud infrastructure is limited.
- Luma
- The default Magento 2 storefront theme. Adobe's overview of Adobe Commerce as a Cloud Service states the edition does not support Luma storefronts, so a Luma store moving there gets a new frontend.
- Hyvä
- A Magento frontend theme with its own partner program at hyva.io, which lists scandiweb at Platinum and Snowdog at Gold among the agencies on this page.
- App Builder
- Adobe's out-of-process extensibility framework. Adobe's migration page states that custom tables identified during assessment require an App Builder customization, and its feature comparison states the SaaS edition customizes through App Builder, APIs, and events only.
- Edge Delivery Services
- The storefront technology Adobe describes for Adobe Commerce as a Cloud Service, with document-based authoring or visual editing, and the target of the storefront transformation Adobe's Commerce Developer MCP supports.
- Commerce Data Migration Service
- Adobe's service for extracting, loading, and verifying catalog, customer, and order data into Adobe Commerce as a Cloud Service. Adobe states it supports first-party core commerce data only and does not handle custom or third-party entities.
- Migration assessment
- Adobe's AI-driven analysis for the SaaS route, which its migration page says identifies custom modules, third-party extensions, integrations, database schema, and custom tables, and produces effort estimates.
- 301 redirect map
- The list that maps every old URL to its new one at cutover. scandiweb's BUFF case reports more than 120K redirects and its Zvaigzne ABC case 21,000; no other agency on this page publishes a count.
- Extended support
- The period after regular support ends in which Adobe still ships security fixes, per its lifecycle page. For 2.4.6 it runs to 31 August 2027; for 2.4.4 and 2.4.5 it has ended, and Adobe's one-time security-only period gives those two isolated security fixes to 31 May 2027.
