Webiny & Retter: A New Era of Serverless Collaboration
About Webiny
Webiny is a serverless content platform built for organizations that prioritize privacy, cost efficiency, and scalability. Designed for modern enterprises, Webiny enables users complete control over their data by self-hosting in on their own cloud. Its serverless infrastructure dramatically reduces costs while providing infinite scalability to handle even the most demanding content workloads. As an open-source solution, Webiny is fully customizable and integrates seamlessly with existing technology stacks, empowering organizations to optimize performance while maintaining full data ownership.
About Retter
Retter is a modern application development platform that enables enterprises to create Distributed Backend Systems by amplifying serverless computing frameworks. Headquartered in Istanbul and Dubai, Retter specializes in empowering players in retail, QSR-F&B, and media industries with modern applications designed for e-commerce, loyalty, segmentation, and promotion tools. Retter typically acts as a digital transformation partner for companies in these industries, often working with organizations that rely on closed-loop, black-box solutions for their e-commerce, loyalty programs, and digital touchpoints. Such companies frequently encounter challenges like:
Long time-to-market for developing desired features.
Delays in modernizing their platforms, hindering their digital transformation journey.
Scalability issues that lead to resource and financial drain on DevOps infrastructure. Retter provides a flexible, scalable alternative for companies facing these challenges, enabling them to modernize efficiently.
How Did Webiny and Retter Cross Paths?
As Retter focused on its core business—Order Management Systems (OMS), loyalty, promotions, and customer experience—it encountered diverse CMS-related customer requests. Instead of developing an in-house solution, Retter sought a state-of-the-art, headless alternative that matched its serverless philosophy. During this search, Retter’s technology teams came across Webiny in a tech forum discussion and started using the platform’s open-source features. This organic encounter marked the beginning of their collaboration, with Retter integrating Webiny into over 15 projects shortly after. Over time, Retter’s growing CMS needs aligned perfectly with Webiny’s continuously evolving product capabilities. This synergy led the two companies to formalize their partnership in Q4 of 2024. The agreement aimed to deepen their collaboration, enabling them to create even greater value in future projects
Looking Ahead In 2025
Webiny and Retter plan to announce a range of exciting collaborations and projects, paving the way for innovative solutions in the serverless ecosystem. Stay tuned for more updates as this partnership continues to redefine what’s possible in the world of modern application development and headless CMS.
