A Strategic Approach to Adobe Commerce ModernizationÂ
The B2B commerce landscape is shifting fast and your platform needs to keep pace. With Adobe Commerce PaaS versions reaching End-of-Life as early as August 2026, manufacturers and distributors face a critical decision: invest in another upgrade cycle, or make a smarter move to Adobe Commerce as a Cloud Service (ACCS).
With McFadyen Digital, we can help you discover the best path toward a platform built for the future.

Why Manufacturers & Distributors Are
Making the Shift
Many commerce teams operating on Adobe Commerce PaaS environments are facing growing operational and strategic challenges:
Increasingly complex upgrade and maintenance cycles
Resource-intensive DevOps and infrastructure management
Rising hosting and operational costs
Slower implementation and innovation timelines
Growing pressure to deliver faster, more personalized customer experiences
Why staying on-premises is a growing liability
Migrating from legacy Adobe Commerce solutions to Adobe Commerce as a Cloud Service (ACCS) gives organizations the opportunity to reduce operational complexity, improve scalability, and accelerate innovation with a more modern, composable commerce architecture.
