Hi All,

 

We are designing XDM data model. Assuming that services will be used at   record and times series . How shall we create the service in order to re-use it? Is it correct if we consider XDM class  ?

Thanks

Hi @luca_lattarini,

 

For data modeling, I used to refer this document which explains all the components that we need to consider prior proceeding with data modeling. I found this very useful to me. Hope this helps to you as well...

@luca_lattarini Without knowing more, it is hard to provide any guidance.  Can you expand a bit?

Hi @luca_lattarini ,

 

Which service you want to create? What is the usecase scenario you are trying to achieve using this service?

 

Thanks,

Jyoti

Hello @jyoti_yadav  @danny-miller @vikashyadav , 

My use case scenario has Profile Entities (customer profile details) and Event Entities (transactions event) must be imported into AEP for utility sector.

My doubt is to create Field Group or XDM Class, do you have some approach allows you to choose btw Field Group or XDM Class?

Thanks

@luca_lattarini Two very different things:

  1. Class is used to create a Schema and defines the essence and behavior of the Schema
    1. https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-platform/xdm/schema/composition.html?lang=en#class
  2. Field Group is then used to extend the Schema (i.e. add more than the basic fields inherited from the Class) 
    1. https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-platform/xdm/schema/composition.html?lang=en#field-group

You never choose between them, you use them in conjunction with each other.
