About SmartBip
SmartBip is the name of our platform: it works as a Middleware / API Gateway between the internal systems of the retailer and the App and Web frontends, providing services that optimize and secure dialogue between the parties. RetAPPs was founded in 2012 by Alessandro Tiretta, who still today provides the company with his expertise in the retail industry. He saw that traditional brick-and-mortar retailers could benefit from innovative tools as they tried to compete with online boutiques, both in terms of customer engagement and loyalty, and in order to respond to the new needs of manufacturers. And indeed, today the data confirm just that. RetAPPs is the ideal partner for traditional retailers because it’s a fully-digital solution provider, able to support retailers throughout the entire digitisation process, resulting in their success: to do so, we came up with SmartBip, proprietary technology that turns any point of sale into a multi-channel e-commerce platform.

Lura
An extendable, simple and stateless high-performance API Gateway framework designed for both cloud-native and on-prem setups. Consumers of REST API content (especially in microservices) often query backend services that weren’t coded for the UI implementation. This is of course a good practice, but the UI consumers need to do implementations that suffer a lot of complexity and burden with the sizes of their microservices responses. Lura is an API Gateway builder and proxy generator that sits between the client and all the source servers, adding a new layer that removes all the complexity to the clients, providing them only the information that the UI needs. Lura acts as an aggregator of many sources into single endpoints and allows you to group, wrap, transform and shrink responses. Additionally, it supports a myriad of middlewares and plugins that allow you to extend the functionality, such as adding Oauth authorization or security layers.

Amazon API Gateway
Amazon API Gateway is a fully managed service that makes it easy for developers to create, publish, maintain, monitor, and secure APIs at any scale. APIs act as the "front door" for applications to access data, business logic, or functionality from your backend services. Using API Gateway, you can create RESTful APIs and WebSocket APIs that enable real-time two-way communication applications. API Gateway supports containerized and serverless workloads, as well as web applications. API Gateway handles all the tasks involved in accepting and processing up to hundreds of thousands of concurrent API calls, including traffic management, CORS support, authorization and access control, throttling, monitoring, and API version management. API Gateway has no minimum fees or startup costs. You pay for the API calls you receive and the amount of data transferred out and, with the API Gateway tiered pricing model, you can reduce your cost as your API usage scales.
