Virto Commerce Microservices Architecture
for eCommerce
Flexibility
Absolute flexibility in adding new functionality and connecting third party solutions. The best-in-breed approach allows the use of specific services tailored to specific business needs. A business selects the services it needs based on their value to the customer, not compatibility. The use of unique and highly specific services is a guarantee of competitive advantage.
Scalability
The built-in scalability results in the high performance required for a perfect customer experience. One of the main benefits of microservice architecture is the ability to scale the front end and back end individually. Developers can extend services as needed without having to modify the entire platform.
Agility
Open to rapid change and alignment with your digital commerce strategy. The technical stack of microservices ensures fast implementation. Since microservices have a decentralized development process, it is easier for developers from different teams to collaborate to adjust the code base and bring new customer experience to market faster.
Cost Efficiency
Low total cost of ownership compared to monolithic solutions. With the microservice approach, each microservice performs its own business function. Only add functionality to the system you will actually use, thus creating a more compact and efficient technology stack. When using a monolith ecommerce platform, the cost of the system may include functions that are not required by the business.
Monolith Platforms vs. Microservices
Microservices allow splitting responsibility zones between a huge number of small teams. This architecture is the best for companies with hundreds of employees working on the same software. Monolith might be comfortable for small custom projects with a team of a few people.
