Introduction

About 25 years ago the very first ecommerce websites were launched and a lot has changed since then. Ecommerce went from a completely new and strange concept to an indispensable part of our global retail. Especially with the rising usage of mobile devices, ecommerce is booming. In 2021, smartphones accounted for almost 70 percent of global website visits. It’s not just about running your ecommerce website anymore, it’s also about digital experiences. 

It all started with the traditional and very well-known monolithic, ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach, followed by the more recent and innovative Headless approach. So what’s next? Earlier we already talked about Headless 2.0, but in order to provide only the best, we have to take the next step. The future is here and it’s time for something new… Composable Commerce! 

What is Composable Commerce?

Instead of using the ‘one-size-fits-all’ ecommerce approach, Composable Commerce leverages modern software technologies by which ecommerce merchants are empowered to select and assemble various “best of breed” commerce solutions and compose them to satisfy their exact business requirements. This enables them to build what their business needs, without having to worry about ‘’re-platforming’’ ever again. And most importantly, leading to unique and best-in-class user experiences. 

“By 2023, organizations that have adopted a Composable Commerce approach will outpace the competition by 80% in the speed of new feature implementation.”

"Composable Commerce Must Be Adopted for the Future of Applications" - Gartner

So what is happening?

Gartner predicts that organizations that have adopted a Composable Commerce approach in 2023 will outpace the competition by 80% i

n the speed of new feature implementation. This statement doesn’t come as a surprise as businesses are already facing problems with their current ecommerce stack. Think of: 

- Not being able to handle high traffic peaks 

- Slow websites

- Expensive and time consuming re-platforming

- Not being able to move fast 

- No flexibility

- One single approach is no longer sufficient

With Composable Commerce these worries are a thing of the past, allowing businesses to fully focus on best user experiences. 

Composing commerce together

While all major platforms and commerce services, like CommerceTools, Algolia, Stripe, Contentful, Adobe Experience Manager and others have their API’s ready to be implemented into a Composable Commerce environment, often the actual control center, to connect, monitor, transform, regulate and dynamically push the data is missing. And that’s exactly where Deity comes in.  

Deity is a strong composer with highly engaging PWA and native storefronts that enable any ecommerce team to assemble, compose and successfully control various tools and services by bringing them all together. Offering a full omnichannel, multi-x and complete composable digital shopping experience to their customers.

With this unique approach, Deity is the crucial centerpiece for any team ready to revolutionize their ecommerce business: ready to achieve ecommerce excellence.
