What is composable commerce?
When Gartner® coined the term ‘composable commerce’ in 2020, they defined it as a development approach enabling businesses to “leverage packaged business capabilities (PBCs) to move toward future-proof commerce.”
commercetools uses the term to explain how we build and offer our products. Basically, by providing an open, flexible environment, our customers have the freedom to select and integrate best-of-breed components (aka PBCs) — and can swap them at any time, whenever those needs change.
The ability to not just slightly adjust the direction but completely change the direction…is a critical part of our business. That’s why we embraced the approach of composable architecture — one day we don’t know we want a referral program, [and] the next day our marketing team wants it. If we can just plug it in easily, obviously that’s a big win for the business. That was and still is the philosophy behind the business.
