Overview of Enterprise Commerce Architecture
mainEnterprise Commerce is an open-source, enterprise-grade Next.js template designed for high-performance e-commerce. It uses a decoupled architecture:
- Shopify: Acts as the e-commerce backend for product data and categories.
- Algolia: Serves as the data middle-layer for fast-lookup tasks including searching, faceting, filtering, and recommendations.
- Next.js (App Router): Powers the storefront with optimized rendering strategies.
This architecture is designed to handle massive product volumes and complex search/filter combinations with minimal latency.
