This post is the eight and last post of the eight-part-series Web Analytics with Adobe’s Customer Journey Analytics, showing how web sites can be analyzed better using Adobe’s next evolution of Adobe Analytics. In the previous post, we were creating the connection from Experience Platform to Customer Journey Analytics. In this post, we are going to take a look at our web analytics data and explore some use cases. Believe it or not, but this series of posts is almost finished! Starting with nothing, we have created a sophisticated schema for our data in Experience Platform, created a tracking implementation using the new Web SDK, enriched our data in Query Service, and pulled all that data into Customer Journey Analytics. If you have been following since the start of the series, I want to say: Thank you, hope you enjoyed the ride! Now it is time for the finale, where […]

Web Analytics with Adobe’s Customer Journey Analytics, Part 7: Customer Journey Analytics Backend Configuration
This post is the seventh post of the eight-part-series Web Analytics with Adobe’s Customer Journey Analytics, showing how web sites can be analyzed better using Adobe’s next evolution of Adobe Analytics. In the previous post, we were enriching our basic web analytics data with some advanced fields in Query Service. In this post, we are creating the connection from Customer Journey Analytics to Experience Platform. At this point in this series, we have a world-class dataset of web analytics data in Experience Platform, ready to be analyzed. I’m personally very proud of the things we were able to achieve in Query Service, especially with the pathing dimensions. With all of that, we have even more than what normal Adobe Analytics would give us! With all the data enriched, we now have only one step left before we can start analyzing our digital user’s behavior. First, we need to pull data […]
Visualizing Adobe Analytics Report Suites for free with Python and Power BI
Adobe Analytics is super flexible in the way it can be set up to exactly match all requirements of business users, analysts, and developers. A crucial part of any implementation is the creation and configuration of the Report Suites, which can be seen as the backend database of Adobe Analytics, that will hold the events sent to Adobe Analytics. In theory (and practice in some setups), each and every Report Suite can have a completely individual set of variables and metrics. However, having the option to create an individual configuration of dimensions and events for each Report Suite comes with a hefty long-term cost. For example, each and every setup needs to be implemented in Adobe Launch, where the on-page data layer needs to be matched to the dimensions and metrics of the Report Suite. If every Report Suite is configured differently, a lot of work needs to be put […]
Web Analytics with Adobe’s Customer Journey Analytics, Part 6: Advanced Data Processing in Query Service
This post is the sixth post of the eight-part-series Web Analytics with Adobe’s Customer Journey Analytics, showing how web sites can be analyzed better using Adobe’s next evolution of Adobe Analytics. In the previous post, we took a look at processing some basic data we need for our web analytics use case utilizing Query Service in Experience Platform. In this post, we are creating some advanced fields to our data in Query Service. I think it’s fair to say that even with just the information from the previous part, we could have a very useful web analytics tool already. But if you know me, you know that I like to take things to the next level wherever I can, especially if it involves writing code. And is SQL not some sort of code too? Entry and exit page were a nice start last time, but we have some fields still […]
Web Analytics with Adobe’s Customer Journey Analytics, Part 5: Basic Data Processing in Query Service
This post is the fifth post of the eight-part-series Web Analytics with Adobe’s Customer Journey Analytics, showing how web sites can be analyzed better using Adobe’s next evolution of Adobe Analytics. In the previous post, we took a look at doing the implementation using Adobe Launch, the Adobe Web SDK, and Client Data Layer. In this post, we are going to processing some basic data we need for our web analytics use case utilizing Query Service in Experience Platform. This series of posts is coming along quite nicely. If you followed all the previous posts until now, you will now have a functioning Web SDK implementation that tracks your data into Experience Platform following the Experience Data Schema we have tailor-made for our use case. Nice! Now we are ready to feed our data into Customer Journey Analytics, right? Well, we could. If we are just interested in the plain […]
