Powering the Future of Commerce: A Discussion on MACH® and Composable Commerce

As eCommerce capabilities become increasingly sophisticated, organizations are considering various composable and headless solutions, including MACH (microservices-based, API-first, cloud-native, and headless), to streamline operations. While 85% of businesses plan to adopt headless commerce within the next two years, transitioning out of a legacy platform is time-consuming. With so many vendors and other factors to evaluate, how can you determine the best path forward?

MACH delivers flexibility and speed by allowing brands to harness best-in-class software to build accessible and personalized consumer experiences. When assessing MACH solutions, you must have a comprehensive understanding of its capabilities, including API, to select leading vendors. It’s often beneficial to take an incremental approach by exchanging various APIs from legacy systems to MACH software.

In this virtual event, Aaron Conant hosts Kelly Goetsch, Chief Strategy Officer at commercetools, who shares key considerations for transitioning to MACH and composable commerce solutions. Kelly explains the role of APIs in MACH architecture, how MACH promotes agility and speed, and the common barriers to adopting MACH.

  • What are MACH and composable commerce?
  • The role of APIs in MACH architecture 
  • Educating executive teams on headless and composable commerce
