About this episode

You can find Ilya on LinkedIn here.

You can listen to Ilya talk about Commerce Components here, a system he describes as a "modern way to approach your commerce architecture without reducing it to a (false) binary choice between microservices and monoliths."

As Ilya notes, “there are a lot of interesting implications for runtime and how we're solving it at Shopify. There is a direct bridge there to a performance conversation as well: moving untrusted scripts off the main thread, sandboxing UI extensions, and more.” 

No badge winner today. Instead, user Kaizen has a question about Shopify that still needs an answer. Maybe you can help!
