Good morning, Marketer, and what’s the latest on CDPs? That’s a topic I’ll be following with interest in 2023.

Optional add-ons available with DX platforms. Tools for extracting (and yes, making actionable) data from warehouses or lakes. And so on. I should say shift “for the most part,” because some of those big, enterprise CDPs are surely in the game for the long-term as independent, standalone offerings.
