Broadleaf Catalog Services

Table of Contents

Overview

This service provides management of product information (PIM).

PIM is a core feature of the framework, bringing the ability to extend the product catalog to match the specific needs of a business. This service provides backend infrastructure and REST endpoints to support a rich administrative UI that can be used to manage categories and products. Moreover, it facilitates building category browse and product details pages and integrating with search platforms like Apache Solr.

Tip
Broadleaf provides an out-of-the-box integration with Solr through our Search microservice. Integrating with other search platforms will require additional customization by the user.
Tip
To integrate with our advanced Pricing Engine, checkout the Catalog Browse microservice which allows direct integration with it, automatically hydrating price info for browse and details request from commerce-facing apps.
