Jumpmind Microcapabilities& API Documentation

Introduction to Jumpmind Microcapabilities and API

Jumpmind Commerce is built on a microservices and microcapabilities architecture that supports modular, extensible components for every major business function. Each capability—such as pricing, promotions, checkout, inventory, or customer management—can be implemented independently, extended, or replaced as needed. The goal is to give retailers the ability to evolve their systems without large-scale rewrites or disruptions to core operations.

What Are Microcapabilities

Microcapabilities extend the idea of microservices beyond the service layer to include the presentation and flow layers. Each capability provides:

  • A defined API contract for interaction with other components
  • Independent deployment and versioning
  • Configurable workflows and UI components
  • Integration hooks for external systems

This approach enables incremental delivery and change management. Retailers can modify a single capability—such as adding a new payment method or updating tax logic—without impacting unrelated areas of the application.

Integration and Extensibility

Jumpmind Commerce integrates with typical enterprise systems such as OMS, ERP, CRM, and payment platforms through a combination of published APIs and data synchronization services. Retailers can:

  • Extend or override existing endpoints
  • Subscribe to events for real-time processing
  • Integrate using Jumpmind's data synchronization framework (SymmetricDS) for reliable offline and near-real-time updates

This flexibility allows the platform to operate across centralized, decentralized, or hybrid environments.

Deployment and Environment

The platform is cloud-native and cloud-agnostic, supporting deployment in AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, or private infrastructure. Microcapabilities can be deployed collectively or independently, and services scale horizontally to handle enterprise transaction volumes. Offline operation is supported at the store level where needed.
