The Canonical Data Model (CDM) is a unified, subject-area-agnostic data structure that serves as the authoritative reference framework for all data flowing through the Customer Data Platform. It provides standardized definitions, structures, and naming conventions for core business entities that evolve across different subject areas such as Party, Account, Product, Contact, Device, Campaign, Segment, and Transaction.
