Hello everyone - I have hands-on experience in Adobe Experience Manager and I am interested to learn Adobe Experience Platform (AEP). What are the technology stacks we should know before learning AEP? What is the best place to start learning AEP?

Hi @mario248 - Great question. 

Considering you have an experience in AEM (Front end / back end both), AEP is more towards data oriented, built on RESTful API where we're building solution that drives customer experience. 

 

To get into AEP, I would suggest to learn some fundamentals about Web analytics, Personalization, data collection and how it works collectively through various other adobe products like Adobe analytics, Target, Adobe data collection( Adobe launch) etc as basics. 

 

Once you start to learn and integrate these with your AEM or any other application where you can able to see how the data flows end to end and that deliver personalization experience based on the segmentation and later on build the real time customer profile in AEP using various services built on top of AEP.

 

This high level architecture diagram helps more to understand and give you a walkthrough about AEP. 

By the way, AEP UI interface used React Spectrum for the client side, which is the same UI toolkit used by all Adobe solutions

Hope this helps.

@mario248 There's really no AEP technology stack,  it is a combination of various products and features which may employ specific technology. Depending on your areas of interest you could learn specific technology. 

Here's a good tutorial of all that is involved within AEP, some of the areas require specific technology are 

  • Data science Workspce ( Jupyterlab, Python etc..) 
  • Query Service ( SQL/Postgres) 
  • Working with REST API

I hope that helps, Good luck!!

Thank you Anil for your response. AEP has no technology stack! You mentioned Data Science, Query Services, and REST APIs, and it helps to understand what technologies AEP uses. I just wanted to know what technologies are required to learn AEP.
