Using Shopify with AWS
Hello! Has anyone built a e-commerce site where your site is running on AWS but Shopfiy is your storefront? From the Shopify developer documentation, it sounds like it can be done but I just want to make sure someone else has done it before successfully.
You can essentially build your own frontend on AWS (or any other provider) and then use the Shopify API to pull in collections and products, update cart etc.
The caveat to this is that you cannot host your own checkout, you will need to redirect to Shopify servers at checkout time and then find a way to redirect back when it completes.
I have a quiz that helps me understand what my customers are looking for and I want to run analytics on that versus what they purchased. I want the analysis to be streamlined instead of having to pull multiple data sources together every time and eventually I want to do ML.
I'm running a Shopify store in my spare time. Curious what features that you'd need to be on AWS and are not provided natively by Shopify?
