About This Architecture

Headless ecommerce architecture combining GraphCommerce Next.js frontend with Magento 2 backend, decoupled via GraphQL API Gateway for independent scaling and deployment. End users route through WAF and CDN to a load-balanced GraphCommerce instance, which queries Magento 2 microservices (Catalog, Cart, Order Management, Customer, Search) via authenticated GraphQL endpoints. Multi-tier caching with Redis handles sessions, query results, full-page cache, and rate limiting, while MySQL primary-replica and Elasticsearch clusters provide persistent data and search capabilities. Observability stack using Prometheus, Grafana, Logstash, and Kibana monitors performance and logs across all tiers. Fork this diagram to customize cache strategies, add additional Magento modules, or adjust database instance types for your transaction volume.

How do you architect a headless ecommerce platform with GraphCommerce and Magento 2?

This diagram shows a production headless ecommerce setup where GraphCommerce (Next.js) frontend decouples from Magento 2 backend via GraphQL API Gateway, enabling independent scaling and deployment. Redis handles session, query, and full-page caching while MySQL primary-replica and Elasticsearch provide data persistence and search, all monitored by Prometheus and Grafana.
