Experience Optimization cartridge
The Experience Optimization cartridge retrieves the trigger types defined in Experience Optimization and puts them into the Claim Store. Retrieving the URL parameters defined for your trigger types ensures only these values are passed on in a Fredhopper query: the URL parameters which are not being used in Experience Optimization are filtered out of the query (all values in the Claim Store are potential values for use in triggers).
Claim Processors
The Claim Processors used in the Experience Optimization cartridge are packaged in the smarttarget_cartridge.jar.
Cartridge XML file
The Experience Optimization cartridge XML file smarttarget_cartridge_conf.xml links the Experience Optimization cartridge together and specifies the Input and Output Claims for each processor. The smarttarget_cartridge_conf.xml is packaged in the smarttarget_cartridge.jar and is preconfigured in the Ambient Data Framework cd_ambient_conf.xml configuration file.
