Key takeaways
Moving from a monolith to MACH requires a cloud-native, API-first headless CMS.
Amplience is a headless CMS and DAM platform built on AWS, using services like CloudFront for high-speed global content delivery.
The platform’s modular architecture allows you to migrate away from a monolith incrementally, reducing risk.
You can procure Amplience directly from the AWS Marketplace to streamline billing and use existing AWS credits.
As digital experiences become more complex, businesses are moving away from traditional monolithic platforms, which can be rigid and slow to adapt. Instead, many are adopting a MACH-based (Microservices, API-first, Cloud-native, Headless) architecture, with Amplience and AWS leading the charge. Together, we provide a solution designed to support composable commerce, enabling brands to deliver engaging experiences, scale seamlessly, and innovate rapidly across channels. This post explores how Amplience’s headless CMS and DAM works with AWS to support a successful composable strategy.
Why choose composable commerce with Amplience and AWS?
Composable commerce allows companies to select the best-of-breed tools and software for each function, rather than relying on all-in-one solutions. This flexibility enables faster response to market shifts and personalized, cross-channel engagement. Amplience, powered by AWS’s secure, global infrastructure, provides a cloud-native headless CMS solution and enterprise DAM that decouples the frontend from the backend, making it easier to create dynamic, responsive customer experiences.
Key benefits of Amplience and AWS for composable success
Lower implementation risks with modular architecture: Transitioning from a monolithic to a modular system can be challenging, especially if it disrupts business continuity. Amplience on AWS helps ease this shift by enabling incremental adoption of new features and services. Businesses can integrate individual capabilities over time, reducing potential risks and allowing for testing and adjustments along the way.
Scalability, speed, and performance with AWS: To stay competitive, brands must ensure their content management can scale with demand, especially during peak times or market expansions. AWS provides Amplience with a flexible, global cloud infrastructure that supports dynamic scaling, ensuring high-speed content delivery anywhere in the world. AWS services like CloudFront enhance Amplience’s performance, ensuring fast load times and reliability, which are essential for customer satisfaction.
Simplified Procurement through AWS Marketplace: Traditional procurement processes can be a roadblock to digital transformation. By offering Amplience on AWS Marketplace, brands can benefit from streamlined onboarding, flexible billing options, and the ability to use AWS credits. This allows businesses to adopt Amplience quickly and cost-effectively, so they can start seeing value sooner.
