Collaboration with Alliance members to develop solutions
that propel modern commerce forward

SANTA CLARA, CA, June 6, 2022 – Webscale, the fastest, most secure cloud platform for modern commerce today announced that it has joined the MACH Alliance as an Enabler member. The MACH Alliance advocates for an open, best-of-breed enterprise technology ecosystem, while its members empower businesses with a composable technology foundation, where every component is scalable, replaceable, and continuously improved through agile development to meet evolving business needs.

The new Enabler membership category, announced by the MACH (Microservices, API-first, Cloud-native SaaS, and Headless) Alliance in December 2021, was created for companies whose solutions are heavily utilized by MACH Alliance member organizations to deliver a MACH service or technology. Webscale is already working closely with MACH Alliance members, including several product co-development projects. 

“We’re excited to have Webscale join the MACH Alliance as an Enabler,” said Sonja Keerl, President of the MACH Alliance. “There has never been a more opportune moment to advocate for scalable and flexible architectures. Webscale is at the forefront of this revolution, with a cloud platform custom-built for ecommerce relied upon by thousands of merchants for ensuring a flawless customer experience, and hence a perfect addition to the Alliance.”

“At Webscale, we have been championing the importance of employing scalable architectures and flexible deployment models that address the needs of modern commerce for many years,” said Jay Smith, Founder and CTO of Webscale.Our decoupled architecture offers extreme flexibility, up and down the technology stack, and microservices, APIs, cloud, and headless are core to Webscale’s approach. We are delighted to join the MACH Alliance as an Enabler alongside companies like AWS, to advocate for MACH as an ecommerce industry standard, and to deliver the best digital experiences for merchants and their customers.”

Webscale’s MACH-aligned cloud delivery platform enables 150+ Digital Agencies, SIs, and ISVs to service leading ecommerce brands such as Dollar General, Unilever/Murad, Olympus, Regal Cinemas, Watsco, Snake River Farms, and Trulieve, among many others. Webscale’s full stack headless commerce architecture and support for underlying cloud-native platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure), and the flexibility to support any frontend, microservices, or backend vendor technologies, with a robust API library and methodology, make it a perfect addition to the MACH Alliance member community.
