This customer acquisition builds upon OpenLegacyโ€™s growing traction in the global retail industry. OpenLegacyโ€™s benefits for this sector where the need for digital agility has never been greater include:

  • Providing a 360-degree view of the customer interaction with the retailer that incorporates any data stored in their mainframes
  • Enabling instant quote approvals for sales reps on the floor in conjunction with their managers
  • Delivering the ability to track inventory and make current data available on any device even when it is stored on the mainframeย 

Monoprix is achieving faster time-to-market with its frequent introduction of new fashion collections by leveraging OpenLegacy to access their mainframe Z O/S systems and expose its transactions as microservices-based APIs. Monoprix has already gone live with a strategic project in collaboration with OpenLegacy, using OpenLegacy to simplify, automate and enable non-developer users to start designing APIs from complex core applications that will further support their business growth.
