About

One of the leading enterprise marketing cloud platforms, competing with Salesforce Marketing Cloud and Oracle Marketing Cloud for large-scale digital marketing and advertising technology deployments.

Adobe Marketing Cloud, now known as Adobe Experience Cloud, was a collection of integrated online marketing and web analytics products by Adobe, unveiled in October 2012 as part of Adobe's strategy to phase out the Omniture brand. Advertisers and agencies could leverage audience segments within its Audience Core Services and buy display, search, and social ads at scale using a self-serve UI within Adobe Media Optimizer, which was powered by a new algorithmic engine capable of managing real-time bidding directly across major ad exchanges at over one million queries per second. Connectivity across these capabilities was driven by Adobe's data management platform, Audience Manager, which offered a feature called Audience Core Services that let marketers build audience segments and port them across different applications — such as email and DSP — within the Marketing Cloud.
