Connected Commerce

Connected Commerce is the coordinated interaction of all digital communication channels based on a unified commerce intelligence" database. This distinguishes Connected Commerce from the previous approach of handling the planning and use of each individual channel separately. The increasing number of communication channels, growing "intelligence" of commerce endpoints (IoT, for example wearables), new direct-to-consumer channels, subscription models for consumer goods - all this requires new, comprehensive data models and IT infrastructures.
