What is Virto Atomic Architecture™?

Virto Atomic Architecture™ (or VAA) is an API-first, headless, modular, and truly flexible technology that powers Virto’s Commerce Innovation Platform.

 

Applying atomic design, VAA consists of composable elements: from smallest atoms to bigger molecules, then larger cells, and fully functional ecommerce solutions or organisms, all existing in the Virto Cloud environment and working together to create an effective ecommerce solution architecture.
