Abstract - There are many online shopping cart websites and their android applications available on the internet. These online
shopping websites and their android app run on the single server and share the database, i.e.- the android application is integrated with the web server to share the resources and the database. There are different types of web servers available for the different purposes in the market, according to your need you need to choose the server and customize its services. The android app that is going to be developed have its website built in PrestaShop eCommerce Shopping Cart software using PHP PL and is used with the MySQL DB to store the data. The objective of this project is to develop the online shopping android app and integrate the App with the PrestaShop eCommerce Shopping Cart software running on XAMPP Server and connect it to the MySQL database and design the GUI of the App for different devices like phones and tablets, so that the customers can easily use the App for online shopping on their android devices. The theme of the app should be attractive and easy to modify by the user so that the customers get attracted to use this app for online shopping. However, we are going to improve performance and scalability of web applications, we will do the analysis. We will decide the guidelines for guiding the design of web application. We will try to put and implement and maintain application level caching which supports to the developers.
Keywords - Android Studio, Android SDK, XAMPP server, MySQL, PHP, PrestaShop eCommerce Shopping Cart. I.
INTRODUCTION
hacking of user's sensitive data, insecurity of credit/debit cards, unreliability or breach of privacy. The project aims at removing flaws of both kinds of shopping and bridge the gap between physical and a virtual world.
The Electronic Commerce or eCommerce is a term for a business or business exchange, that includes the change of data over the internet. Online business permits clients to electronically trade products and ventures with no boundary of time or distance. The Mobile Commerce or mCommerce is the purchasing and selling of goods and services through wireless handheld gadgets, for example, mobiles and tablets. It is known as next generation eCommerce. Online shopping is a type of eCommerce which permits clients to directly purchase goods or services from a merchant over the internet using a web browser. Online shopping has two types of process, 1. Business-to-Consumer (B2C) 2. Business-to-Business (B2B)
“Android platform was built from the ground up with the explicit goal to be the first free platform, open and complete platform created specifically for mobile devices.” Android platform is an open framework and is allowed to use by anybody. A mobile handset manufacturer can utilize android in the event that they take after the assertion expressed in the Software Development Kit (SDK). There is no limitations or prerequisite for the handset manufacturer to impart their expansions to any other person as they are in another open source programming in the event that they leave the Linux kernel as it seems to be. The Linux kernel is under an alternate and more confined permit than Android.
The online shopping system has the shopping cart which permits the customers to create a list of items to be purchased. At the time of checkout, the total is calculated for the items list in the shopping cart, including shipping and handling charges and the associated taxes as applicable. This project is of type one process i.e.- Business-to-Consumer because the products are sold directly to the customers.

Applying caching at the application layer is an engaging choice since it can enhance the execution of both the application servers and the database. Application level caches are a prevalent solution for enhancing the versatility of complex web applications: they are broadly used by some outstanding sites. They are engaging on the grounds that they can be executed with a straightforward, adaptable plan, and their adaptability enables them to address many bottlenecks.
Traditional shopping is a tedious and time-consuming job. Although the growing trend of online shopping has reduced some load, there is still some difference in actually going to shops and hand-picking products to get the feel of their quality and features that cannot be experienced online. Customers also feel worried to carry out online purchases due to fear of less secure transaction process that may lead to
