However, the functionalities of monolithic systems don't always align with the needs of the organization. When additional features are developed, they can disrupt existing processes or unnecessarily burden the system. During updates and upgrades, these extra components can also introduce additional complexity.
Pre-built user interfaces
Monolithic e-commerce platforms are often delivered with pre-built user interfaces, leaving you with little control over the optimal user experience. Functions such as product, price, and order management are interconnected and cannot operate independently, making it difficult to replace or add services. Additionally, it is uncertain whether a monolithic platform will remain viable in the long term if it lacks the capability for automatic updates via cloud services.
Composable stack: embracing the best-fit products and modularity
In recent years, the composable stack has gained significant popularity as an alternative architectural approach. This model emphasizes breaking down applications into smaller, decoupled services or microservices that communicate via well-defined APIs. Each service can be developed, deployed, and scaled independently, offering greater flexibility and modularity.
With Composable Commerce, you have complete control because business logic is separated from the user interface. In other words, you are building a sustainable and future-proof omnichannel solution. Since each function is like a separate LEGO piece, you can optimize it based on actual needs. By exclusively using True SaaS (Software as a Service), you are assured of always running the latest version, with capacity and performance automatically scaled. In short, you get a secure and sustainable solution for today and tomorrow.
