Westwing Launches on Patchworks Tech Platform

Furniture retailer Westwing launches on Patchworks technology platform as it migrates to Shopify.

Furniture retailer Westwing has gone live with the Patchworks unified technology stack as part of a migration from an in-house ecommerce platform to Shopify.

In a LinkedIn post, Jim Herbert, CEO at Patchworks, said, “It’s fair to say I am stoked by this one! This was a self build by the Westwing team using our training materials and supported by our tech team, and the iterative approach mentioned in Shopify’s case study meant that not only did site one launch in less than three months, we’ve lived through their first BFCM weekend on the new stack and saw the power of modern auto-scaling SaaS architecture first hand.”

He added, “I will talk briefly to Patchworks’ MACH Alliance membership here as well. A requirement was for us to support publish subscribe patterns and events (RabbitMQ) and our micro-service architecture made moving the roadmap to accelerate this requirement much easier than legacy iPaaS solutions and we delivered it on time, and have many clients now using this.”

“Shout out to Braze (Westwing used our connector builder for this as it wasn’t in the marketplace at the time), Snowflake and Salsify as our integrated partners.”
