Integration with CDP, Campaign Systems, and MaxAI
HCL MaxAI Canonical integrates with the following Unica applications:
CDM as the Enterprise Backbone
CDM acts as the single integration spine across:
- Campaign systems (Unica / other MA tools)
- Customer Data Platform (CDP)
- MaxAI (analytics, insights, recommendations)
Everything plugs into 360 views and the metadata-driven core.
Campaign Integration
High-level data flow:
- Source systems – campaign managers, marketing platforms, etc.
- LDZ – raw campaign data staged as ldz_campaign_*.
- RDV – Data Vault entities:
- h_campaign for core campaign identity
- l_campaign_* for relationships (campaign–customer, campaign–offer, campaign–channel)
- s_campaign_* for campaign attributes and performance metrics
- Campaign 360 – curated view with standardized KPIs and attributes.
CDP Integration
- Customer 360 → CDP: Identity resolution, unified demographic & behavioral attributes, consent, risk, and product holdings.
- Campaign 360 → CDP: Performance feedback, segment lift, audience insights.
- CDP uses these to power:
- Segment definitions
- Journey orchestration
- Real-time activation
MaxAI Integration
MaxAI consumes Customer 360 and Campaign 360 for:
- Descriptive and diagnostic analytics:
- "Why did this campaign underperform?"
- "Which segment responded best to this offer?"
- Cross-domain insights: Correlations between customer behavior and campaign execution.
- Narrative analytics: Natural language explanations of KPIs, charts, and anomalies.
Over time, the same backbone powers:
- Propensity models
- Next Best Action / Next Best Offer
- Autonomous campaign optimization loops
End-to-End Flow: CDM → 360 → AI
- Source data entered via LDZ.
- RDV canonicalizes entities and relationships.
- 360 layer builds Customer 360 and Campaign 360.
- CDP and MaxAI consume these unified views.
- Insights and performance feed back into CDM for continuous improvement.
