Differences Commerce vs. Commerce Cloud

[former_member624549]

What are the differences between these two solutions:

• SAP Commerce
• SAP Commerce Cloud

Is there a whitepaper or some document comparing the two solutions from a customer point of view. When should a customer decide for one or the other?

[arvind-kumar_avinash · Accepted solution]

There are two variants of SAP Commerce Cloud:

1. SAP Commerce Cloud v1 (CCv1 or SAP Commerce Cloud on SAP Infrastructure)

2. SAP Commerce Cloud v2 (CCv2 or Commerce Cloud in the Public Cloud)

You can check https://medium.com/@marko.ullgren/two-clouds-in-practice-a-comparison-of-sap-commerce-cloud-v1-and-v... for a good comparison between these two. There is another one at https://hybrismart.com/2018/05/20/a-detailed-comparison-oracle-commerce-cloud-and-on-premise-aka-atg...

When we say 'SAP Commerce', we simply mean Hybris On-Premise software package.

Choosing between On-Premise and Cloud variants is more linked to the organization's IT strategy and roadmap than the comparison between their capabilities. You won't find much difference in the two variants but the way they are deployed and managed varies by far. On-Premise and Cloud have their own pros and cons and an online search will give you hundreds of links explaining it e.g. https://www.cequens.com/story-hub/cloud-vs.-on-premise-solutions-the-pros-and-cons

yes - what are the arguments to use on premise vs cloud. How does a customer decide?

as of v1, v2 you would go with v2 I assume. A new project will not wan't to use v1 cloud anymore right?

Only V2 is offered for new customers, the advantage of CCv2 is that it's a managed environment which reduces TCO and licensing costs. It's also it's a pure Cloud solution, so it can scale up quickly and has Monitoring tools like Dynatrace and Kibana out of the box.
