Send a segmentation of customers with the highest propensity to buy to Amazon S3

Synerise allows you to collect data from any touchpoint with a customer. With advanced Synerise Analytics, you can create precise customer segments that you can use not only in Synerise, but also pass them to external tools. Using Synerise’s seamless integration with Amazon S3, you can transfer any data collected in Synerise and use it in other Amazon services.

In this use case, we will export a database of customers with the highest propensity to buy to Amazon S3. The process of creating a Propensity prediction and segmentation is already described in this use case. The segmentation used in this use case is only an example. You can export any other segmentation or different data types as needed, such as transactions, event data, metrics results, aggregates, expressions, reports, and more.

Prerequisites

• You must have an account on AWS.
• Create propensity prediction and segmentation with customers with the highest propensity to buy selected product category based on this use case.
