DMP
A DMP (Data Management Platform) is a tool that helps advertising and marketing teams collect, organize, and use customer information to create better advertising campaigns. Think of it as a smart database that helps companies understand their audience better. It takes information from different sources like websites, apps, and customer databases, and turns it into useful insights that help make advertising more targeted and effective. Some popular DMPs include Salesforce DMP (formerly Krux), Adobe Audience Manager, and Oracle DMP (formerly BlueKai).
