What are the two merge policy methods supported by Experience Platform?

The two merge policy methods supported by Adobe Experience Platform are indeed Timestamp Ordered and Dataset Precedence.

Timestamp Ordered ensures that the most recently updated information is prioritized when merging data records. This method is particularly effective in cases where multiple updates or contributions to a dataset may have occurred. It allows for a clear and logical sequence of events, enabling the most relevant and current data to be taken into account.

Dataset Precedence, on the other hand, establishes a hierarchy among the datasets from which data is being merged. This means that when there are conflicts between records from different datasets, the dataset that has been determined to hold greater precedence will decide which record prevails in the final merged outcome. This method allows organizations to maintain control over their data sources and ensure that authoritative data is prioritized.

These merge policies are crucial in maintaining data accuracy and consistency within the Adobe Experience Platform, allowing businesses to derive actionable insights from their datasets effectively. The other options listed do not represent recognized merge policies within the platform, as they refer to different data management and validation concerns.
