Event-driven

The focus on customer relationships comes with another challenge. These relationships evolve constantly and continuously in time, and there is no foreseeable sequence of events. Instead, anything can happen all the time, simultaneously, and in real-time. Consequently, keylight has developed an event-based and reactive engine that can observe these dynamics and intelligently derive automated actions. Choosing this approach over the usual static order management ensures that you will ultimately stay flexible when designing your business model and the touch points with your customers.

Layered

Most business platforms struggle with an undesired trade-off. They can either be feature-rich but complicated to use, or they can only handle simple requirements and introduce limitations. keylight solves this problem by supporting multiple layers of complexity at the same time. Experts and administrators can use advanced features to define policies, rules and processes while the tools for operational teams are always straightforward to use. With this approach, we can support even the most challenging use cases while masking away complexity for the majority of users.

API-first

Although keylight provides great prebuilt applications and user interfaces for different user groups, it is designed as a headless business platform in the first place. By creating our APIs first and using them ourselves for developing our features, we make sure that the full platform functionality is also available when building a custom application. Businesses can let their creativity flourish without limits. Moreover, this approach guarantees high connectivity with other systems, so that keylight can be easily integrated into any existing architecture.
