Ecommerce Microservice Architecture In NEXT BASKET
Do you want the ultimate in performance from your ecommerce site? With NEXT BASKET’s all-in-one ecommerce platform, you’ll enjoy the efficiency, security, and speed that microservice architecture makes possible.
What is microservice architecture?
Microservice architecture is a type of software design that uses services and processes (modules) that can function independently. As a distributed system, it can share information quickly among the modules, making your ecommerce store more efficient.
In contrast to monolithic architecture, microservices don’t depend on heavily centralized software. That distinction makes a microservices-based platform faster, easier to scale, and more secure than traditional ecommerce platforms with monolithic architectures.
NEXT BASKET’s ecommerce microservice architecture connects these modules, enabling them to communicate with each other across the entire system. This asynchronous communication increases your ecommerce site’s efficiency, allowing you to add new services and modify existing ones.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is microservices architecture the best framework for an ecommerce site?
Microservice architecture enables online store owners to manage their inventory and sales quickly, efficiently, and securely. Owners can add new products easily, offer versions of their site in different languages, manage their own database, and create new features as they need.
Using a microservices framework allows owners to scale the system to their exact needs. Store owners can adapt immediately to a spike in customer interest yet use fewer resources when sales are down, saving on hosting costs.
Developers arrange microservices into separate layers by function. This layered architecture allows the developers to modify and upgrade each layer without needing to redesign the entire application.
Microservices also make it possible for you to separate your content storage from where you showcase a headless content management system (CMS). NEXT BASKET’s headless architecture lets you update and edit your products on the frontend, saving time and effort.
What are service-oriented architectures?
Service-oriented architectures use software components — each a small independent service — to produce business applications. Microservices are a type of service-oriented architecture. Each microservice has a specific business function and communicates with other microservices through API calls.
The NEXT BASKET platform features service discovery, allowing you to automatically detect devices and services on its network and to integrate them seamlessly into the system.
What is an API gateway?
In developing software systems, microservices developers often use an application programming interface (API) gateway to enable each microservice module to communicate with other modules. This capability is one of the reasons microservice architecture facilitates quick, efficient service at scale.
What is a software architecture pattern?
Today’s web application development teams use microservices architecture to create responsive, secure, and scalable applications. Developers arrange these microservices in patterns to generate autonomous services that they can reuse, adapting the software to whatever needs the application’s users have.
