What is the Composable CDP?
The Composable CDP in Hightouch connects your data warehouse directly to the tools your teams use.
- Data teams define reusable datasets while keeping data governed at the source.
- Marketers use those datasets in a visual builder to create audiences, sync to marketing tools, build automated workflows, and measure results.
Unlike traditional CDPs, Hightouch doesn’t copy or store data in a separate system. It runs on top of your existing infrastructure, giving marketers direct access while allowing data teams to stay in control.
The Composable CDP is also modular: you can adopt only the products you need.

Events
Trigger workflows when customers take action by streaming or batching event data from your apps and websites.
- Batch events: Use scheduled data (e.g., purchases, cancellations) to power campaigns like win-back emails.
- Real-time events: Stream user actions to enable same-session personalization, such as showing an offer while the user is still browsing.
