Web/Mobile Personalization with known customer data blueprint
Use cases
- Online personalization with known customer data
- Landing page optimization
- Personalization based on prior product/content views, product/content affinity, environmental attributes, and demographics in addition to offline data such as transactions, loyalty and CRM data, and modeled insights
- Share and target audiences defined in Real-time Customer Data Platform on websites and mobile apps using ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ Target.
Applications
- Real-time Customer Data Platform
- ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ Target
- ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ Audience Manager (optional): Adds third-party audience data

Pre-Requisites
Real-time segment evaluation on the Edge shared from Real-time Customer Data Platform to Target
- Evaluate audiences in real-time for same or next page personalization on the Edge.
- In addition, any segments evaluated in streaming or batch fashion will also be projected to the Edge Network to be included in edge segment evaluation and personalization.
- Web/Mobile SDK must be implemented or the Edge Network Server API
- Datastream must be configured in Experience Edge with the Target and Experience Platform extension enabled
- Target destination must be configured in Real-time Customer Data Platform Destinations.
- Integration with Target requires the same IMS Org as the Experience Platform instance.
Streaming and batch audience sharing from Real-time Customer Data Platform to Target via the Edge approach
- Share streaming and batch audiences from Real-time Customer Data Platform to Target through the Edge Network. Audiences evaluated in real-time require the Web SDK and Edge Network implementation.
- Web/Mobile SDK or Edge API implementation of Target is not required for sharing of streaming and batch RTCDP audiences to Target though it is required to enable real-time edge segment evaluation outlined above.
- If using AT.js, only profile integration against the ECID identity namespace is supported.
- For custom identity namespace lookups on the Edge, the Web SDK/Edge API deployment is required and each identity must be set as an identity in the identity map.
- Target destination must be configured in Real-time Customer Data Platform Destinations, only the default production sandbox in RTCDP is supported.
- Integration with Target requires the same IMS Org as the Experience Platform instance.
Streaming and batch audience sharing from Real-time Customer Data Platform to Target and Audience Manager via the Audience Sharing Service Approach
- This integration pattern can be leveraged when additional enrichment from 3rd party data and audiences in Audience Manager is desired.
- Web/Mobile SDK is not required for sharing of streaming and batch audiences to Target though it is required to enable real-time edge segment evaluation.
- If using AT.js, only profile integration against the ECID identity namespace is supported.
- For custom identity namespace lookups on the Edge, the Web SDK/Edge API deployment is required and each identity must be set as an identity in the identity map.
- Audience projection via audience sharing service must be provisioned.
- Integration with Target requires the same IMS Org as the Experience Platform instance.
- Only audiences from the default production sandbox support the audience sharing core service.

Implementation patterns
Known Customer Personalization is supported via several implementation approaches.
Implementation pattern 1 - Edge Network with Web/Mobile SDK or Edge Network API (Recommended Approach)
- Using the Edge Network with the Web/Mobile SDK. Real-time edge segmentation requires the Web/Mobile SDK or Edge API implementation approach.
- Refer to the Experience Platform Web and Mobile SDK Blueprint for the SDK based implementation.
- For use in the Mobile SDK the must be installed in the Mobile SDK.
- Refer to the Edge Network Server API for an API based implementation of ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ Target with Edge Profile.
Implementation pattern 2 - Application specific SDKs
Using traditional application-specific SDKs (for example, AT.js and AppMeasurement.js). Real-time Edge segment evaluation is not supported using this implementation approach. However streaming and batch audience sharing from Experience Platform hub are supported using this implemenation approach.
Refer to the ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ Target Connector Documentation
Refer to the application specific SDK Blueprint
Implementation considerations
Identity pre-requisites
- Any primary identity can be leveraged when utilizing implementation pattern 1 outlined above with the Edge Network and Web SDK. First login personalization requires the personalization request set primary identity match the primary identity of the profile from Real-time Customer Data Platform.
