The Akeneo Marketplace Extension enables seamless synchronization of products, categories, attributes, attribute sets, and media from Akeneo PIM to Adobe Commerce (Magento 2). Built on an automation-first foundation, it replaces manual updates with structured mappings, validation rules, and scheduled sync operations. Using optimized REST APIs and an intelligent job queue architecture, the extension ensures data accuracy, consistent product updates, and full visibility into every sync.
With support for high-volume catalogs (40,000+ SKUs), multilingual store views, and multiple Adobe Commerce instances, the extension is engineered for performance and scalability. Comprehensive logging, retry mechanisms, error tracking, and real-time monitoring make it robust for enterprise environments. The result is a faster, more reliable product workflow that significantly reduces time-to-market and operational overhead.
