Platform security, scalability and trust inherited by stores
Key Takeaway
Every B2B Commerce store, whether built on an older Aura template or a newer LWR template, inherits the same performance, security, and scalability as the standard Salesforce Platform technologies. The store needs no separate stack of its own.
Salesforce B2B Commerce runs on the Salesforce Platform instead of as a separate ecommerce system. Because of that, a store gets its performance, security, and scalability from the platform. Salesforce supplies the infrastructure underneath. The store also shares one data model, workflows, and architecture with the rest of Salesforce. The shared foundation is a core part of the B2B Commerce value proposition.
What every store inherits
Every B2B Commerce store includes the same performance, security, and scalability as all the standard Salesforce Platform technologies. The store inherits these from the platform, so it doesn't need its own separate stack to get them.
Salesforce manages hosting, scaling, and core platform infrastructure, which means your team doesn't build or run a separate infrastructure stack for the store.
