Retail Web Development – Transformation in Commerce

A basic custom retail application typically takes 3-4 months from requirements to launch, focusing on core e-commerce functionality and essential integrations. More complex solutions with advanced features, such as AI-powered recommendations or multi-warehouse management, can extend the timeline to 6-8 months.

The development process incorporates multiple security layers, including tokenization, end-to-end encryption, and secure payment gateways that comply with PCI DSS requirements. Regular security audits and automated vulnerability scanning are integrated into the development pipeline alongside strict data handling protocols that maintain continuous PCI DSS compliance.

Modern retail solutions are built using API-first architecture and standardized integration protocols, enabling seamless connections with existing business systems. The integration process involves creating custom middleware and data synchronization services that ensure real-time data flow between all connected systems.

The solutions are built on cloud-native architecture using microservices and containerization, which allows automatic scaling based on traffic and load patterns. The infrastructure is designed with horizontal scaling capabilities, utilizing load balancers and distributed databases that can handle growth from hundreds to millions of transactions per second.

We develop using React Native frameworks that provide near-native performance while maintaining a single codebase for both iOS and Android platforms. Platform-specific optimizations and native modules complement these frameworks, providing features that require direct hardware access or maximum performance.
