Which destination type is recommended for forwarding raw event data without other profile data sources in AEP?

The recommended destination type for forwarding raw event data without including other profile data sources in Adobe Experience Platform (AEP) is Extensions.

Extensions serve as a way to add specific functionalities and capabilities to AEP, allowing users to integrate additional data sources or systems that may not necessarily involve relationship data or complex profiles. When the focus is solely on raw event data, Extensions become particularly useful, as they are designed for collecting and sending this type of data efficiently.

In contrast, other options such as Profiles are primarily about managing and shaping customer data into coherent profiles, and Connections or Integrations typically relate to linking and syncing various data sources or outputs which may include more complex data types. Thus, when the requirement is strictly raw event data, utilizing Extensions is the most suitable choice.
