From Legacy To Cloud -Native Retail Modernization: Leveraging Ci/Cd, Infrastructure-As Code And Self Healing Sre System For Scalable Reliable And Cost -Optimized Digital Commerce

Abstract

The article examined how the existing legacy retail systems were transformed into cloud-native digital commerce platforms using the Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD), Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC), and self-healing Site Reliability Engineering (SRE). The study had used a mixed-methodology to examine the quantitative measures of performance and qualitative information obtained by cloud, DevOps, and SRE practitioners. The results indicated that modernization efforts had greatly elevated the success rates of deployments, minimized average time to recovery, expedited the infrastructure provisioning, and improved cost efficiency. System resilience and the general customer experience had also been enhanced by the implementation of automation, observability and reliability engineering. It was found that cloud-native modernization had given the digital commerce scalable, reliable and cost-efficient base that had overcome the shortcomings of the existing retail architectures.
