OMIX has been building e-Commerce systems since our inception in 1994. Over the years, we have adopted emerging technologies to make our systems more scalable and standards compliant. The current OMIX e-Commerce Infrastructure™ is our fourth generation in this evolutionary series. It is based upon a J2EE component set, and effectively separates the business logic from the site presentation logic. This allows us to construct sites that differ in content presentation, but retain a similar underlying business logic, thereby significantly reducing development costs and time to market. This infrastructure includes the following capabilities:

• dynamically extensible product catalog
• dynamically extensible set of product attributes
• support for product collections
• multiple language and currency representation
• support for persistent shopping cart
• membership or anonymous user accounts
• automated order confirmation e-mail
• user account order status with shipper tracking link
• support for multiple shipping addresses in a single order
• automated credit card validation and transaction clearing
• dynamic product availability based on fulfillment inventory levels
• order processing to fulfillment center
