\nAmazon Sales Channel\u00a0is now available in Magento for the Amazon U.K. Marketplace, with support for additional European territories arriving next year. The extension for Magento Commerce and Open-Source removes the entry barriers for merchants who are trying to gain a strong position with Amazon while managing their channel. It also allows brands to easily integrate their catalog, establish a bi-directional data flow and manage listings from their Magento admin.<\/p>\n
\nAt Imagine, Magento had announced that Product Recommendations feature powered by Adobe Sensei will be directly integrated into Magento Commerce. At MagentoLive Europe, the launch of the Early Access Program for this feature has been announced. Magento\u00a0Commerce merchants\u00a0that are part of the program will be able to leverage\u00a0the feature directly within the\u00a0Magento\u00a0admin from January 2020.<\/p>\n
\nThe event saw multi-cloud capability being bolstered by making Magento Commerce available on both Microsoft Azure and Amazon Web Services (AWS). With both Azure and AWS offered as the underlying provider, Magento merchants can now choose their preferred cloud provider and deploy innovations without worrying about the day-to-day management of their infrastructure. Further, the Early Access Program for Azure support will begin next year.<\/p>\n
\nEver since Magento became a part of Abode, the community has been making great progress in\u00a0integrating\u00a0Adobe\u00a0Stock\u00a0with\u00a0Magento Commerce and Open Source. The same was a topic of discussion at MagentoLive Europe. This highly anticipated feature is ought to provide a searchable interface within the Magento admin to discover, preview and embed licensed\u00a0stock\u00a0images within the platform. The integration will give merchants with an\u00a0Adobe\u00a0Stock subscription quick access to\u00a0Adobe\u00a0Stock\u2019s 130+ million assets, including images, templates, 3D assets, 8+ million\u00a0stock\u00a0videos and over 750,000 premium collection images. Further, it will enable Magento to control their vast community of 350+ solution partners and 300K developers in accelerating the delivery of product roadmap.<\/p>\n
\nAfter Magento 2.3.2<\/a>, Magento 2.3.3 is all set to impress users. Bringing substantial performance improvements and security enhancements, the version will allow Magento customers to remain compliant with new directives and regulations. \u201cStarting with 2.3.3 we are bundling\u00a0Yotpo\u2019s leading customer ratings, reviews, and visual marketing capabilities into the Magento core as a vendor bundled extension. Now merchants can more quickly tap strategic partner technologies directly within the Magento code, without needing to download and install them from the\u00a0Magento Marketplace<\/a>\u201d, said the community. Further, Google Shopping ads Channel will also be a major part of the latest 2.3.3 core code.<\/p>\n
