Over the years, I've seen a massive struggle with adding digital data to existing or new data science initiatives. The challenge here is that digital data holds an incredible amount of value in today's world and without it, data science will suffer. Whether the data is an input for attribution (any flavor), scoring models, machine learning, or otherwise, the challenges always tend to remain the same:
Tag-based solutions, or those that rely on a data layer as a primary input, require advanced configuration in order to ensure that the micro-interactions within a particular page or experience are not only captured, but also tied to the session and to the individual. Even the most complex implementations, in my experience, struggle with the cross-session and device stitching of the individual. For data science, this presents as a core challenge given that many of these micro-interactions are required as signal inputs to the models being developed.
Furthermore, data captured without a relational structure are rendered relatively useless for data science without a heavy amount of costly transformation and joining of data downstream. I cannot stress enough about the importance of having a data model and schema readily available from whatever vendor you are using to capture digital data. It's a gap in the industry, generally speaking, and something that you won't realize is an issue until you try to connect that data from your marketing cloud or tech stack to an external system or vendor.
So if you're a Data Scientist or analyst who would love to leverage your valuable digital data in all data science initiatives, imagine for a moment the value to your organization, and how easy your job would become, if you could do it like this:
