I have pushed this article back so many times that I feel bad for it. So even though one part of the story isn't there yet, I'll publish it now. (Update, the Extension is now publicly available!) The story began with me moving to Switzerland and the Basel office. This office came to Adobe via … Continue reading The Adobe Client Data Layer

On letting go
Planning hero, me. Last week, I looked at blog stats, saw that the last post was 12 days ago, then hurriedly rescheduled a post to fill the perceived gap. This week, I realised I had posted three articles in September, and had created a gap for this Tuesday. So now I'm shuffling and changing my … Continue reading On letting go
Troubleshooting Launch (for beginners)
The most frustrating situation in tech is when you start working on something new, and it won't work. You don't understand what is going on, because your knowledge, quite frankly, isn't there yet, and all the pages you find online give you different, conflicting advice.

How does the “First Launches” metric work when you upgrade to the v5 Mobile SDKs?
In a call with a customer here in Switzerland, the question came up whether moving from the Mobile Services SDK (vulgo "v4") to the Experience Platform Mobile SDKs ("v5") would lead to a spike in the "First Launches" metric or not.

Edge Nodes, Data Centres & other Updates

It extends and partly supersedes other articles, such as Debugging - the URL, or … Continue reading Edge Nodes, Data Centres & other Updates
Adobe Experience Platform Mobile SDKs – What changes need an app update?
I think I can safely say I speak for all of us when I say this: the first time I heard about Launch playing a role in the deployment of Experience Cloud applications on mobile, I immediately thought "tag management! On mobile! I wonder how far it goes!" Ever since, I have wondered how much … Continue reading Adobe Experience Platform Mobile SDKs – What changes need an app update?
Big Changes Ahead!
Towards the end of 2019, the world of consultants in the Adobe Experience Cloud eco system changed. First our product management announced some changes for Workspace "Customer Journey Analytics", then Aaron Hardy, Joe Khoury, Justin Grover, and Jenny Medeiros posted an announcement about a unified Javascript library. Those are huge! I'm not sure if you … Continue reading Big Changes Ahead!
Using Audit Events in Launch
So this post is technical, but it answers a common question or demand: how can I be notified when someone makes or publishes changes in Launch? DTM used to have emails... The answer is, that as of March 25, email notifications for publish are on the road map for Launch, so there's nothing built-in right … Continue reading Using Audit Events in Launch
Adobe Experience Platform Mobile SDKs – Recap
This article is part of the Adobe Experience Platform Mobile SDKs mini-series. It is about the series as such. You can find the overview here. I don't think I have ever done anything like the AEP Mobile SDKs mini-series before. In total, I posted 10 articles, including this one, and I did it with a … Continue reading Adobe Experience Platform Mobile SDKs – Recap
