Customer data infrastructure

Customer data infrastructure (CDI) is a comprehensive framework that includes the systems, tools, and processes necessary to collect, store, and manage customer data from various sources. This infrastructure is crucial for creating a unified view of customers, enabling better decision-making and personalized marketing strategies. CDI consists of data warehouses, integration tools, and analytics platforms that work together to ensure data integrity and accessibility.

The main difference between a CDI and a customer data platform (CDP) is their approach to data. CDI provides the foundational architecture for data management, while a CDP is a specialized tool that allows businesses to analyze this data for actionable insights. CDP focuses on enhancing customer engagement through targeted marketing efforts.
