In episode five of Mastering Datorama Fundamentals, Ross Jenkins and Vimal Eapen cover Harmonization focusing on patterns and harmonized dimensions, data classification, and data validation.
Marketing Cloud Intelligence (formerly known as Datorama) offers multiple tools for harmonizing your data. Because you can upload data from various sources, you need a way to merge the data and provide a complete view of your marketing activity. In most cases, no single data source holds all relevant data on a marketing event or campaign. The data is shared by multiple platforms that digital marketers use to do things like promoting the campaign on multiple channels. To analyze the full picture, we harmonize data from all sources into one.
The Harmonization Center is meant to streamline the entire process of creating meaningful dimensions from naming conventions patterns across all your marketing channels. Also allowing you to classify and validate your harmonized data all in one place.

In episode four of Mastering Datorama Fundamentals, Ross Jenkins and Ankit Bhandari cover Data Visualization with a heavy focus on native and custom widgets.
Although the industry is focused on story and visualization, we argue that Information Design is too often overlooked. A good data story is not judged on its length, its complexity, or the use of advanced analytics. A good data story understands the audience, conveys a clear message, spurs action, and ultimately changes the way we do business. Unfortunately, ‘Visualization’ can get in the way of our narrative. We fail to tell the story and hide behind visuals. Fortunately, Marketing Cloud Intelligence offers clear credible solutions. In this session, Decision Foundry demonstrates what’s possible.

Learn the art and science behind Data Blending. With data coming from so many sources, you need to blend or harmonize it to get the complete picture of your marketing activity. Without harmonized data, you’ll end up analyzing each source individually and miss faster, more efficient insights.

Want to learn how to use Datorama? The first step to quality solution building is sound data ingestion and onboarding. Join Lohith Paturu, Decision Foundry’s Group Technical Manager and Certified Solution Architect, as he leads you through the importance of Data Onboarding Fundamentals.
Incorrect onboarding practices lead to aggregation issues, duplicate data points, inaccuracy, and ultimately, loss of stakeholder confidence. Technology has provided analysts with the necessary tools to increase the likelihood of proper data ingestion, but there are still universal principles that should be followed. When you onboard and prep your data correctly the first time, you can leverage your data to its fullest extent. Technology no matter how sophisticated should never trump data protocols. This is true of any business intelligence project and Datorama, now called Marketing Intelligence Cloud is no exception. In this session, we’ll focus on Data Onboarding. No slides. No jargon. Just an old-fashioned walkthrough of the process using actual data within the platform.
