Scanning through LinkedIn the other day, I came across [Mike Lowndes’ compelling post](https://www.linkedin.com/posts/mikelowndes_composable-commerce-must-be-adopted-for-the-activity-6679655101239488512-yr_S/) about his recent research at [Gartner](https://www.gartner.com/en) on the emergence and value of composable commerce. In his brief summary, Mike and his co-author, [Sandy Shen](https://www.linkedin.com/in/sandy-shen-7a9469/), urge application leaders to prepare for a composable approach using packaged business capabilities (PCBs) to move toward future-proof digital commerce experiences. Quite simply: it’s the way of the future. The full research report, available to Gartner subscribers, makes excellent points; namely:

***“We are already seeing a shift away from monolithic digital commerce application solutions toward modular platforms built from several discrete capabilities. This shift was fundamentally hindered by the full-stack approach. The decoupled nature of modern front ends has become an enabler for the acceleration of a composable application approach — as back-end capabilities can be developed and even launched independently of the front end. Organizations are embracing this approach to increase agility and flexibility, and so are vendors.”***
