storing, by the computer-based system, the consumer profile in a database;
including, by the computer-based system, a key field in the database to speed searches;
tuning, by the computer-based system, the database to optimize database performance,wherein the tuning includes placing frequently used files on separate file systems to reduce in and out bottlenecks;
receiving, by the computer-based system, consumer tracking cookie information stored on a web client based on the cookie ID; and
transmitting, by the computer-based system and in response to receiving the consumer tracking cookie information, the consumer profile to a data partner system, wherein the data partner system compares content to the consumer profile and identifies tailored content based on the comparing.

Abstract
The present disclosure includes a system, method, and article of manufacture for aggregating a consumer profile, identifying tailored content (e.g., in response to a trigger event and/or based upon a consumer profile), and/or tailoring a digital destination. For example, the systems may receive direct data indicating an interest in receiving specific content, aggregate that data into a consumer profile, compare the consumer profile to content, and/or identify tailored content based upon the comparison. Further, the systems may communicate the tailored content to a web client associated with a consumer, receive a transaction request from a web client, and/or receive bids associated with tailored content. In addition, these systems may prioritize tailored content comprising a plurality of tailored offers and/or forecast a budget for an upcoming experience.
