Streaming ingestion overview

Streaming ingestion for Adobe Experience Platform provides users a method to send data from client and server-side devices to Experience Platform in real time.

What can you do with streaming ingestion?

Adobe Experience Platform enables you to drive coordinated, consistent, and relevant experiences by generating a Real-Time Customer Profile for each of your individual customers. Streaming ingestion plays a key role in building these profiles by enabling you to deliver Profile data into data lake with as little latency as possible.

The following video is designed to help support your understanding of streaming ingestion, and outlines the concepts above.

Stream profile records and ExperienceEvents

With streaming ingestion, users can stream profile records and ExperienceEvents to Experience Platform in seconds to help drive real-time personalization. All data sent to streaming ingestion APIs is automatically persisted in data lake.

Please read the create a streaming connection guide for more information.

Stream to datasets

Once you are confident that your data is clean, you can enable your datasets for Real-Time Customer Profile and Identity Service.
