Composable Commerce Solution

Flexibility is crucial in modern e-commerce. Composable Commerce and NovaDB offer just that - they allow companies to customize their online commerce platforms.

What is Composable Commerce?

Composable commerce is an approach to e-commerce that allows companies to customize their commerce platforms in a modular way. Instead of using a standardized "one-size-fits-all" solution, composable commerce allows companies to select specific software components and services and connect them via APIs (interfaces).

Each of these software components or services fulfills a specific function, be it in the area of the online store, the enterprise resource planning system (ERP), the product information management (PIM), the content management system (CMS) or the point-of-sale system (POS).

The advantage of this approach lies in its flexibility: companies can select the tools and services best suited to their needs and quickly replace or expand them as required. This enables greater adaptability to specific business requirements and market changes.

• API-Driven

• Modular

• Headless

• Microservices Architecture

• Cloud-native

• Third-party integrations

In the age of digital transformation, composable commerce is the next logical step in the evolution of omnichannel e-commerce. Originally coined by Gartner Inc. in 2020, this approach offers companies the flexibility to combine specialized functions from a variety of sources without being tied to monolithic systems.

Composable commerce is more than a trend; it is a strategy for companies that want to serve their customers better, optimize their business processes and increase their competitiveness.
