Getting Ready: The Amazon Online Shopping System

Problem definition

Amazon is an online retail platform that allows its users to buy from and sell products to other users in the system. There are numerous product categories that customers can search and choose from. Products have reviews and ratings that can help customers make a buying decision. Each customer has a shopping cart where they can add products they wish to order. Once customers have added their favorite products to the cart, they can check out the cart and choose a payment method to place their orders. The customers are notified about their order and shipment statuses until the order is delivered. The system also allows users to add products they want to sell.
