The advent of Smart Phones and Tablet Computers has caused a “Big Transformation” in the eCommerce industry as it has dramatically changed consumer behavior and moved them away from traditional transaction. E-commerce is a business that thrives on its online customers. E-commerce application can either be a web application or a mobile application where the users sell and buy products. A good E-commerce site is key to its success. The better the site, the better the business. Consumers expect eCommerce platforms to be Smarter, Faster, and Secure. They also expect the transaction experience to be convenient, cost-effective, and safe. Setting up an E-commerce system is a complex process and subjected to many market specific variables.

 Key objectives for an ecommerce site are,

• Better performance and response time: 43% of the desktop users give up when the page takes more than 3 seconds to load. Mobile users are a bit more patient compared to desktop users. They leave the site if the response time is over 5 seconds. Conversion rate drops dramatically when your online shop is slow. Retail giant Walmart increased their site speed and noticed an increase of 2% in visitor’s conversion rate and revenue by 1%.
