Composable Commerce: what your business needs | Algolia

Composable Commerce is an approach that involves building commerce systems by connecting best-of-breed components into custom applications to address specific business needs. It offers benefits such as higher agility, flexibility, and easier implementation of experiences across all touchpoints. The MACH definition (Microservices, API-first, Cloud-native, Headless) sums up the technical requirements for Composable Commerce. In contrast, traditional monolithic ecommerce platforms face scalability and complexity limitations. The headless approach to eCommerce allows freedom and flexibility by removing the link between front-end and back-end, enabling companies to create customized tech stacks and choose the best API components for their unique use-case.
