"At this point in time, you will not find any other IT architecture that is as flexible and scalable. So why not use the most modern solutions?"

MICROSERVICES
Work continuously with your product data without interruption in Bluestone PIM.
They are applications that are developed and managed one service at a time. They typically perform a single function, such as a wish list or product search. When one of the services is updated, the others continue to work.
API-FIRST
Send your product data stored in Bluestone PIM anywhere you need, regardless of system, platform, sales channel, or application.
API-first software is fully designed to maximize connectivity via APIs (Application Programmable Interfaces), which allow systems to exchange data with each other in a standardized way.
CLOUD-NATIVE
This is why with Bluestone PIM you get robust security, agility, and elastic scaling.
The cloud-native SaaS approach moves the application to the software provider’s cloud, freeing you from the cost and burden of on-site installation and storage, as well as subsequent updates or upgrades.
HEADLESS
This is how with Bluestone PIM your business can take advantage of new trends, sales channels, or technologies faster.
Being headless means that an application can work without a native user interface. This greatly enhances connectivity and interoperability between systems and channels.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1 - What does MACH stand for in technology?
MACH architecture is a set of four modern technologies that together form a powerful combination and enable a real digital transformation:
1. Microservices - unlike monolithic architecture, each application performs a specific business function and is independently developed, deployed, and managed by other applications.
2. API-first - the application programming interface allows the software to communicate with its entire ecosystem and other solutions via APIs.
3. Cloud-native - means that the software is developed from the ground up in the cloud and leverages the full power of cloud computing, including storage, unlimited scalability, and automatic updates.
4. Headless - a technology where the front-end layer is separate from the back-end, which brings advantages such as freedom in user interface design. Headless Commerce allows you to make quick updates without changing your back-end system completely.
Adding MACH technology to a tech stack offers many benefits for businesses and can be a perfect foundation for entering the world of composable commerce, one of the most key trends in e-commerce in the coming years.
