What Is a Composable DXP?
A DXP combines multiple software applications into a single, cohesive platform that can be easily composed and recomposed to meet the changing needs of the business.
A âcomposable DXPâ essentially describes when a DXP is assembled from a series of best-of-breed solutions. These solutions work together via APIs to deliver content and digital experiences to customers in a more agile and flexible way than a single, integrated, and essentially monolithic platform. It essentially brings more of a microservices approach to the DXP space.
By decoupling the underlying components of the platform, businesses can quickly and easily adapt their digital experiences to changing customer needs and market conditions.
Why Is the Future Composable?
The future of business rests on the ability to quickly adapt to change. In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, that means having a composable digital experience platform.
According to Gartner, âby 2023, organizations that have adopted an intelligent composable approach will outpace the competition by 80% in the speed of new feature implementation.â
A composable platform is one that can be easily assembled and disassembled to create custom experiences for specific needs.
This concept is often compared to Legos, where each piece can be combined in different ways to create a unique finished product. In the same way, a composable platform provides businesses with the flexibility to quickly create customized digital experiences.
This is essential in today's competitive market, where customers expect a personalized experience tailored to their specific needs. By investing in a composable platform, businesses can stay ahead of the curve and keep their customers happy.
Benefits of the Composable DXP
Flexibility: When opposed to a monolithic platform, a core principle of the composable DXP is that it may give a more lightweight way of generating new sites and applications due to fewer dependencies connected with each feature.
Agility Across Omnichannel: Since headless architecture provides clean, organized content to every channel and device, you'll be able to reach your clients no matter where they are.
Scalability and Future-Proofed: Because you avoid the costly obligations and vendor lock-in of a typical monolithic strategy, and can pivot much quicker if you need to alter your customer experience emphasis, the flexibility of a composable DXP helps you to better plan for any scenario.
Easy to Customize with the Tools You Want: Integrations in monolithic DXPs are a significant source of frustration. You may quickly add additional tools to your stack or switch to a solution that provides the functionality you want by using the composable DXP architecture.
