What is MACH?

MACH architecture is a set of principles that offers a new, best-of-breed approach to constructing enterprise software stacks.

The goal of MACH is to migrate from legacy applications to a modular architecture that allows enterprises to be more agile and adapt faster.

Microservices

Break everything down into separate specialized capabilities and deploy to individual teams based on the problems they’re trying to solve. This gives teams access to updates and new features faster, while building the solution your business really needs.

API-First

All functionality is designed, developed and deployed through APIs (application programming interfaces). These are front and center of the MACH approach, seamlessly connecting your architecture with the many applications in today’s commerce ecosystem.

Composable

Because MACH architecture operates in the cloud, you have the power of infinite scale and flexibility no matter how you evolve your solution in the future. No more painstaking upgrades. No more sky-high management costs. And significantly less downtime risk.

Headless

Detach the frontend presentation layers – e.g. a web page or app – from the backend functionality that makes them work. Quickly and easily make changes to your digital experience fast without relying on developers.
