Why microservices architecture is good for eCommerce
In microservices architecture (MSA), business functionalities and logic, e.g. PIM, CMS, payment workflows, etc, are streamlined across different APIs. Each microservices can be integrated, reused, or removed whenever needed, enabling businesses to rapidly upscale and introduce updates quickly.
What are the benefits of microservices for eCommerce?
Scalability
Headless and decoupled approaches make every microservices a powerful, autonomous entity—integrate or remove any microservice easily and update at any time, without affecting the whole eCommerce ecosystem
Updatability and niche expertise
Modules in microservices are independent and attributed to a specific dev team responsible for them—this enables stand-alone debugging, testing, and asynchronous deployment for each microservice
Speed
Microservices enable fast and efficient data processing, timely updates, faster delivery to the market, and provide a quality user experience across all customer channels
Lower maintenance costs
Compared to monolithic architecture, modules in microservices codebases are usually smaller, reducing development and maintenance costs
