Headless eCommerce explained

Headless eCommerce refers to the separation of the frontend (or the "head") from the backend of an eCommerce platform. This architecture is one of the simplest examples of composable architecture. With a fully composable implementation, there could be many platforms with specific functional roles connected via micro-services to create a resilient network of nodes that can be more easily updated, replaced, and modified without substantial impact to the other nodes.

Headless/composable commerce is not for everyone. If this concept sounds like it would help your business, it is worth doing the research necessary to fully evaluate the pros and cons. Where there is a good fit for your business, the benefits are clear. Here are just a few of them.
