CJA data views vs multiple sandboxes in AEP

[Michael_Soprano]

I prepare implementation plan for a company with multiple business's. Assuming that every business unit would have separate sandbox then every data view in CJA should correspond to the adequate sandbox in AEP? 

From the business perspective I do not want to mix the data between different business units.

Not sure the question here but depending on the business I agree that this would be the correct set up. I would suggest keeping parity between as much as possible so it is easy to jump between data views. Maybe make it possible to have one report that you would switch the data view on and it still work.

Agree with Nick.  It's definitely best to try to create as much consistency as possible.  The sandboxes will hold your datasets and each connection can combine datasets from a sandbox.  But multiple data views can be based on the same connection, if desired.

When setting up your data view components there are some best practices that can make things more consistent and easier.

I discuss some in the first week of Tuesday Tech Tips for CJA.  Other weeks might be valuable as well.
