If you think about it more than one should, mobile app advertising is also a type of retail network. Which brings us to a pair of acquisitions: App business platform IronSource is buying mobile app monetization platform Tapjoy for $400 million, and mobile marketing platform InMobi is buying app analytics vendor Appsumer.

RudderStack, which styles itself “the AI Data Cloud Native CDP”, has unveiled a suite of Data Apps running on its Customer 360 solution, which in turn runs within Snowflake AI Data Cloud.

They are now available to Enterprise Tier RudderStack customers on Snowflake.
