Hi Gokul and Everyone,

My name is Dmytro Panchenko. I live in the US near Philadelphia and work for EPAM Systems doing software projects for its customers. I started as a developer in 2000, then worked as a technical business analyst and technical product owner on Adobe Experience Manager projects. In 2023 I ended up on the bench and decided to learn Adobe Target. Now I am an Adobe Target developer and want to put to system and improve my Adobe Target knowledge. I am glad to participate in this program under your guidance.

This is the first time (in my current role) I'm interacting with Adobe group of products, and I'm super excited to explore them!

And what better way to start than this mentorship program!

Hello Aspirants,

@OliviaBreheny @awanishk1743512 @Dmytro_Panchenk @ZvoidZ @RavikiranPaturi @ReinaldoNa1 @renatobocalini @Subratpalo555 @madalavenkat7 @VinayC @NamanSa

Here is the first quiz for Week1

There is requirement to compare two different experience on a page, and then traffic will be redirected to the winner.

Which type of A/B activity can be used to meet this requirement?

Manual A/B Test
Auto-Target
Auto-Allocate

Reply your answers here with explanation if possible.

NamanSa · 5/12/24

3. Auto-Allocate

Auto-Allocate compares two (or more) different experiences until they they reach statistical significance, then starts redirecting majority of new traffic to the winning experience - thus satisfying our requirements.

However, in real life, I would check for some nuances:

Auto-Allocate requires medium-to-high volume for its Algorithm to be efficient. We need to make sure the page is getting the required volume.
If deep statistical analysis is needed to "compare two different experience on a page", Auto-Allocate may not be a good option since it keeps changing the %split.

In such scenarios, Manual A/B Test can be used.

Gokul_Agiwal · 5/16/24

@NamanSa Yes, Auto Allocate is the right one and nice to have the explanation.

@OliviaBreheny @awanishk1743512 @Dmytro_Panchenk @ZvoidZ @RavikiranPaturi @ReinaldoNa1 @renatobocalini @Subratpalo555 @madalavenkat7 @VinayC - Please get engaged in weekly quiz session.

Remember, the most engaged aspirants will receive the Adobe Swag.
