Abstract
The emergence of cloud-based technologies has revolutionized the e-commerce sector, facilitating
innovative features for enhanced user experiences. This study addresses the need for a more
sophisticated e-commerce platform by incorporating store selection and price comparison features
within a cloud-based framework. Current e-commerce platforms lack seamless integration of store
choices and comprehensive price comparisons, leading to suboptimal consumer decision-making.
This research aims to bridge this gap and create a more informed shopping experience for users.The
existing e-commerce landscape falls short in providing users with a unified platform that seamlessly
integrates store selection and price comparison features. Shoppers are often required to navigate
through multiple websites and apps to assess store options and compare prices, leading to
inefficiencies and confusion.The proposed cloud-based e-commerce platform leverages a
combination of web scraping and API integrations to collect data from various online stores. A user-
friendly interface is developed to present users with a unified view of store options and price
comparisons. The platform's backend operates on cloud infrastructure, ensuring scalability and
responsiveness. Key findings reveal that users can efficiently explore different stores, leading to
more informed purchase decisions. Price variations across stores are presented clearly, aiding users
in making cost-effective choices. Incorporating store selection and price comparison features within
a cloud-based e-commerce platform addresses the limitations of existing solutions. The platform
empowers users with the ability to make well-informed purchasing decisions and enhances their
shopping experience. By leveraging cloud infrastructure, the platform is positioned for future growth
, ensuring continued relevance in the dynamic e-commerce landscape.
