In order to support both web and offline retail businesses, particular requirements have been laid down in the retail sector, e.g. need for scalable, flexibility and security of IT infrastructure.

Many retailers have invested in legacy systems over the years, and these systems often handle critical functions such as inventory management, order processing, and payment processing. Integrating these systems with cloud-based systems can be challenging, but it is essential to ensure that retailers can leverage the benefits of cloud computing while still maintaining their existing systems.
-
Data security is a critical concern for any business, including those in the retail industry that use cloud. Growing security and privacy concerns are reluctance among some retailers to adopt cloud software in some developing countries.
