Enhancing Retail Omnichannel Strategies Through AI-Powered CI/CD Workflows and Scalable Infrastructure Management
Abstract
The evolution of omnichannel retailing has necessitated seamless integration across digital and physical platforms. This research explores the application of AI-powered Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) workflows combined with scalable infrastructure management to enhance omnichannel retail strategies. The study examines how machine learning algorithms optimize customer experience by leveraging real-time data analytics, inventory forecasting, and personalized recommendations. A mixed-methods research approach was adopted, integrating qualitative insights from industry experts and quantitative data analysis on retail automation deployments. Data collection encompassed surveys, structured interviews, and case studies of AI implementations in major retail firms such as Walmart, Reliance Retail, and Amazon. Findings indicate that AI-driven CI/CD pipelines significantly reduce deployment failures and enhance system resilience, enabling real-time decision-making. Results further demonstrate that scalable infrastructure management allows retailers to optimize resource allocation, improving efficiency while reducing operational costs. This paper contributes to the existing literature by providing empirical evidence on the impact of AI-driven CI/CD strategies on omnichannel retailing, highlighting best practices and challenges. The study underscores the necessity of a robust digital transformation framework to adapt to market dynamics and consumer expectations. Future research should focus on refining AI models to enhance automation in inventory and customer service management, further bridging the gap between digital innovation and traditional retail practices.
