1.2 Foundation - Data Ingestion
In this module, the goal is to learn all about data ingestion. You’ll learn about data ingestion in Streaming and Batch. You’ll implement Streaming Data Ingestion by using Launch, so that the customer behavior on the Hands-On Lab website is streamed to ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ Experience Platform in real-time. You’ll learn about Batch Data Ingestion by using an ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ Experience Platform Workflow to take a CSV-file, map it against an XDM-schema and then ingest it into ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ Experience Platform.
Learning Objectives
- Learn how to create an XDM Schema in ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ Experience Platform
- Learn how to create Datasets in ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ Experience Platform
- Learn how to create a streaming endpoint and configure the ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ Experience Platform extension in Launch
- Learn how to create Rules in Launch to stream data to ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ Experience Platform
- Learn how to integrate ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ Experience Platform Launch onto a webpage
- Learn how to use an ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ Experience Platform Workflow to ingest a CSV-file into ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ Experience Platform
Prerequisites
- Access to ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ Experience Platform:
- Access to ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ Experience Platform Launch:
- Access to Postman
Exercises
In this exercise, you’ll explore the website that you’ll use as part of this enablement.
1.2.2 Configure Schemas and Set Identifiers
In this exercise, you’ll configure the required XDM schema’s to capture profile information and customer behavior. In every XDM schema, you’ll also have to configure a primary identifier to link all the information to.
In this exercise, you’ll retrieve the required datasets to capture and store profile information and customer behavior.
1.2.4 Data Ingestion from Offline Sources
In this exercise, you’ll go on the website and mobile app and behave like a customer, streaming data to Platform.
Setup your Data Landing Zone Source connector with Azure Blob storage.
