| usage | Whale vs casual player segmentation, region-based content delivery, retention cohort analysis (churned after day 3), VIP user targeting for offers |
| avoid | Computing segments on every single event causing cascading latency, using stale event data (>5min old) inflating segment size estimates, ignoring consent flags including non-opted users, hard-coding segment logic without versioning causing AB test data corruption |
| mandates | Segment accuracy >=95%, cohort refresh latency <5min from event, max 1000 concurrent named segments, consent-verified membership only |
| response | Define segments with SQL-like conditions (e, g, , revenue>100 AND retention_day_7>=0, 6) stored in Segment Registry, versioning each definition for audit trails |
