Adobe stack integration (Analytics / Target / AEM), only AC?

Mostly AC, but it’s nuanced:

  • Adobe Analytics: AC ships a native connector module with pre-built event mapping (product views, add-to-cart, checkout, purchase). OS can integrate via Adobe Launch (free) or a community connector, works, just more setup hours.
  • Adobe Target: integration is at the JavaScript layer (mbox / at.js), so works on either edition. AC adds tighter customer-segmentation handoffs.
  • Adobe Experience Manager (AEM): integration is via API. Both editions can talk to AEM equally well; the AEM commerce-pages connector targets AC by default but works on OS with config.
  • Real Customer DataPlatform (RT-CDP): Adobe pushes this into AC contracts; OS doesn’t get the bundled hook.

If you’re fully committed to the Adobe Experience Cloud stack, AC + AEM + Analytics + Target sold together gets meaningful Adobe-bundle pricing. If you’re only using one Adobe product, OS + a custom connector is cheaper.
