Adobe has announced new capabilities in Adobe Target, its personalization tool that is part of Adobe Experience Cloud. These updates — including a new on-device decisioning capability — are designed to help developers run their own tests and offer personalization to customers. It is now available and allows developers to extend personalization capabilities beyond content and into product features and releases, according to Adobe officials.
Developers can work alongside marketers in Adobe Target by testing and experimenting different website features. Adobe’s on-device decisioning capability features a hybrid decisioning architecture where marketers, product owners and developers work from a single UI and an integrated set of capabilities. Developers can manage feature flags, which helps them enable or disable functionality remotely after deploying code and roll out new features on websites and web applications.
Marketers can run tests on the website, such as personalized offers, product recommendations and specific calls to action. The hybrid model offers a single implementation and integration with Adobe Experience Cloud applications and Adobe Experience Platform.
