A data management platform (DMP) is a suite of tools that helps organizations to collect and manage data from a wide array of first-, second-, and third-party sources and to create reports and build customer profiles as part of targeted personalization campaigns. Deploying a DMP can be a great way for companies to navigate a business world dominated by data, and these platforms have become the lifeblood of digital marketing today.
The term “data management platform” can be confusing because, while it sounds like a generalized product that works with all forms of data as part of generalized data management strategies, the term has been more narrowly defined of late as one targeted to marketing departments’ needs.
