Adobe Ad Cloud

You can create audiences containing first- and third-party data linked to Oracle Data Cloud cookies and mobile advertising IDs (MAIDs) and then create campaigns to send your audiences to the Adobe Ad Cloud. AfterAdobe Ad Cloud maps your audiences in your advertiser account, your Oracle Data Cloud platform data flows into your audiences. You can then use Adobe Ad Cloud's converged TV and video advertising platform to optimize the performance of your video and display advertising campaigns.

If you need advice or recommendations about creating audience, contact My Oracle Support.

Note: The Adobe Ad Cloud app deprecates the TubeMogul cookie and MAID apps. Delete the old TubeMogul apps from your app catalog to ensure you are using the current features for this integration. Deleting the apps does not affect any of your existing TubeMogul data campaigns.

Important! A new version of the Adobe Ad Cloud app was introduced in July, 2018. If you installed the old app, you must delete it before installing the new one.

To send your audiences to the Adobe Ad Cloud:

  1. Delete previous Adobe Ad Cloud apps.
  2. Install the Adobe Ad Cloud app.
  3. Create an audience.
  4. Create a campaign.
