What is Composable Commerce?

Modular Architecture

  • Businesses can select and integrate individual commerce components (PIM, OMS, Checkout, Search, etc.) instead of being locked into a single, all-in-one solution.
  • Each component functions independently, allowing swapping or upgrading without affecting the entire system.
  • Encourages gradual adoption, meaning businesses can transition to composable commerce at their own pace.
Imagine seamlessly adding an AI-driven search feature to enhance your customer experience without overhauling your entire system.

API-First Design

  • All services and components communicate via APIs, making integrations seamless.
  • Allows businesses to connect third-party services, custom applications, and internal systems efficiently.
  • APIs enable real-time data exchange, improving performance and personalisation.

Cloud-Native Scalability

  • Designed to leverage cloud infrastructure for auto-scaling, high availability, and cost efficiency.
  • Ensures elastic performance, automatically adjusting to traffic spikes during peak seasons.
  • Supports serverless computing, containerisation (Docker, Kubernetes), and microservices.

Best-of-Breed Approach

  • Instead of using an all-in-one suite, businesses can choose the best solutions for each function.
  • Reduces vendor lock-in, allowing businesses to change tools as needed.
  • Facilitates experimentation and innovation by integrating the latest technologies.

Headless Commerce

  • Decouples frontend and backend, allowing businesses to use different technologies for each.
  • Frontend developers can build custom UI/UX experiences without limitations of backend platforms.
  • Enables seamless commerce across websites, mobile apps, voice assistants, and IoT devices.
We can design a lightning-fast, React-based storefront that connects to your existing backend, such as Magento, while also enabling voice-commerce or mobile-first experiences.

Business Agility & Adaptability

  • Companies can quickly adapt to market changes, emerging trends, and customer demands.
  • Faster time-to-market for new features without waiting for monolithic platform upgrades.
  • Encourages continuous innovation by rapidly testing and deploying new components.
If a new AI-driven personalisation tool emerges, you can integrate it immediately instead of waiting for a platform update.

Enhanced Customer Experience (CX)

  • Enables hyper-personalisation by leveraging AI and real-time customer data.
  • Supports omnichannel experiences, ensuring seamless interactions across multiple touchpoints.
  • Delivers faster performance with optimised, purpose-built components.

Cost Efficiency & Future-Proofing

  • Reduces technical debt by avoiding bloated, monolithic systems with unused features.
  • Lowers long-term costs by only paying for the services and features a business actually needs.
  • Ensures future scalability, allowing businesses to upgrade or replace components without rebuilding the entire system.
