# Segment CDP
## Patterns
### Analytics.js Browser Integration
Client-side tracking with Analytics.js. Include track, identify, page,
and group calls. Anonymous ID persists until identify merges with user.
### Server-Side Tracking with Node.js
High-performance server-side tracking using @segment/analytics-node.
Non-blocking with internal batching. Essential for backend events,
webhooks, and sensitive data.
### Tracking Plan Design
Design event schemas using Object + Action naming convention.
Define required properties, types, and validation rules.
Connect to Protocols for enforcement.
## Anti-Patterns
### ❌ Dynamic Event Names
### ❌ Tracking Properties as Events
### ❌ Missing Identify Before Track
