The Forrester Wave™: Digital Experience Platforms (DXPs), Q3 2021

Monolithic suites are no longer the best choice for enterprises. Leading brands now embrace composability and the modern CMSs that support it. Composable architectures facilitate a platform built from best-of-breed technologies rather than relying on the monolith that limits a business’s flexibility.

This shift is highlighted in the Forrester Wave™ for Digital Experience Platforms (DXPs) that mentions that “digital experience platform customers should look for providers that have a microservices-based, API-first, cloud-native, headless (MACH) offering.”
