Composable Commerce Expertise since 1999

Composable commerce transforms Dutch e-commerce through modular architecture. Instead of monolithic platforms, you build with specialized components that communicate via APIs. Each module (checkout, search function, inventory management, payments) can be independently optimized for compliance and customer needs.

Core benefits for Dutch businesses

Modular & flexible
Replace or upgrade components without platform-wide migrations.
Minimal risks and phased implementation.

API-first development
All components communicate via standard REST APIs.
Updates to individual modules don’t affect other systems.

Dutch compliance
GDPR-by-design with our datacenter in Apeldoorn.
In short, complete data sovereignty within EU borders.

Vendor lock-in freedom
Open standards and complete data ownership.
No dependency on American cloud providers.

MACH Architecture: Microservices, API-first, Cloud-native, Headless

MACH architecture is a modern approach to software development that stands for Microservices, API-first, Cloud-native, and Headless. Instead of one large, monolithic software solution, MACH enables companies to build their technology from independent, modularly designed components that communicate via APIs, use cloud-based infrastructure, and can flexibly couple both backend and frontend. This makes companies more flexible, faster, and better able to innovate and adapt to changing needs. Below is a brief explanation of each MACH Architecture principle.

Microservices

Small, independent services for specific e-commerce functions. Can be developed, updated, and replaced independently. Minimal downtime and maximum flexibility for Dutch businesses.

API-first

All functionality available through standardized interfaces. Easy integration with existing Dutch systems and future innovations. Vendor-agnostic communication between all components.

Cloud-native

Modern Dutch cloud technology for automatic scalability. Dutch datacenter infrastructure ensures GDPR compliance and low latency for Dutch customers.

Headless Commerce

Frontend completely decoupled from backend systems. Fast adjustments to customer experience without backend changes. Optimal for omnichannel Dutch retail strategies.
