the similarities between them are: both traditional warehousing and e-commerce warehousing are initiated based on the flow of goods, and both achieve the logistics goal at a certain controllable cost. This goal is to deliver the products to the right place and the right person in the right way at the right time, which is one of the few similarities between them. However, e-commerce has new requirements for e-commerce warehousing and logistics because of different industries, which compresses the space and speeds up the time.
the difference between them is that the traditional warehousing "less varieties, large quantities, less batches, long cycle" has changed into "multi-varieties, small batches, multi-batches, short cycle", which leads to great differences in logistics behavior, such as inventory management, warehousing, picking and vehicle arrangement.
