Shopify Plus Development Pairs Certified Databricks AI Practice at Lucent Innovation

WILMINGTON, Del. - Aug. 3, 2026 - PRLog -- Shopify Plus merchants in the U.S., where Lucent Innovation concentrates its client base, have historically had to choose between a commerce-focused build agency and a separate data or AI vendor to add personalization and analytics to their stores. Lucent Innovation says that gap is closing at the agency level, confirming that its Shopify Plus development practice now works directly alongside its Certified Databricks Partner team on client projects.

Lucent Innovation has been a Shopify Plus Partner since 2016 and holds Certified Databricks Partner status, placing data engineering, machine learning, and AI development inside the same company that builds and maintains the storefront. The company says this removes a common handoff point where personalization projects stall between vendors.

"Most Shopify Plus builds and most AI or data projects still happen in separate silos, often with separate vendors," said Ashish Kasama, Co-founder and CTO of Lucent Innovation. "Bringing our Databricks practice onto the same project as our Shopify Plus team means personalization and analytics get built into the store from day one, instead of bolted on afterward."

Through its shopify plus development (https://www.lucentinnovation.com/services/shopify-plus-de...) practice, the company pairs storefront architecture, headless commerce, and post-launch growth work with Databricks-based data pipelines and AI models, applied to catalog data, customer behavior, and recommendation logic inside Shopify Plus environments.

The company positions this as a response to a wider shift among its Shopify Plus merchants, who are increasingly asking for AI-driven personalization and data infrastructure as part of their commerce build, not as a separate initiative after launch.

Lucent Innovation, founded in 2013, is a technology company with offices in Ahmedabad, India, and Wilmington, Delaware, serving a client base concentrated in the U.S. market. The company has been a Shopify Plus Partner since 2016 and holds Certified Databricks Partner status, working across commerce, data engineering, and AI development for direct-to-consumer and enterprise brands.
