Adobe announced several enhancements to its Real-Time CDP, including automatic enforcement of consumer privacy preferences and company data access policies, clean-room-like audience matching, predictive account and lead scoring, and tighter integration with Adobe Commerce. Meanwhile, a separate announcement about enhancements to Adobe Analytics described it as the “single workspace for brands to unify data and insights across all media types”, which sounds CDP-ish. It’s a reminder that Adobe sees its CDP as one of several tools to access unified customer profiles stored in a separate platform layer.
CDP Blueshift has released a bi-directional integration with cloud data platform Snowflake, making it easier to load Snowflake data into the Blueshift profile database and to post Blueshift data into Snowflake.

Twilio is adding ‘contextual awareness’ to its Segment CDP, which in plainer English means data stored in Segment will be available when creating event-triggered, real-time messages.

Twilio separately announced a multi-year partnership with Microsoft to speed the adoption of conversational AI for customer engagement.
