Salesforce Reference Architecture
Commerce Cloud Storefront Reference Architecture (SFRA) blends proven methods in site creation, promotion and technical architecture to offer an OOTB design for merchants to build sites as distinctive as their brands.
Salesforce Storefront Reference Architecture (SFRA) was set up using a data-driven design examination of over two thousand mobile storefronts to recognize the most appropriate UX approaches. Its futuristic architecture allows merchandisers and developers to create mobile experiences at high-speed.
