Now, you may be thinking: “these all sound great, but… How do I start the process of “going composable"? Well…
Here’s how Alumio can help: with our integration platform, businesses can progressively switch towards a composable architecture based on their current business needs without having to re-platform their entire existing IT landscape. As such, businesses can part ways with legacy systems or base e-commerce platforms without risking any loss of data integrity when “going composable.”
One of the recurring problems with replacing legacy software or implementing new software is how to create these new connections. This entails a greater challenge when integrations are created via custom code and are connected to several systems or if there is an attempt to connect to large-scale and complex ERP systems, such as SAP ECC or Microsoft Dynamics 365. Needless to say, archaic, intricate connections between bespoke systems obstruct the continuity and standardization of data across the organization.
However, with the Alumio iPaaS, adapting composable stacks is easier than ever. Our iPaaS presents a low-code, user-friendly interface that both developers and non-developers can use to create, manage, and modify integrations. By lowering the complexity of integrations, our integration platform enables businesses to have control and ownership of their integrations and thus reduce their dependency on third-party providers. Additionally, by automatically segregating connected systems into data flows and microservices, the Alumio iPaaS allows businesses to swiftly add new technologies to their domestic digital environment and remove outdated ones. In other words, it provides businesses with unparalleled flexibility to customize their e-commerce stack as desired while guaranteeing the usability and connectivity of all e-commerce data across all systems.
In summary, with Alumio, businesses have access to the following:
✓ Fast and simplified integrations that allow for swift re-platforming
