About cross domain tracking
How standard tracking compares to cross domain tracking
Cross domain tracking makes it possible for Analytics to see sessions on two related sites (such as an ecommerce site and a separate shopping cart site) as a single session. This is sometimes called site linking.

About Roll-Up Reporting
This feature is only available in Google Analytics 360, part of the Google Analytics 360 Suite.
Learn more about the Google Analytics 360 Suite.
Roll-Up Reporting aggregates data from multiple Analytics properties and lets you see that data together in the same reports.
For example, if you have multiple properties for brand sites in different countries (example.fr, example.co.uk, etc.), you can aggregate that data to see global-performance metrics, and then drill down to compare brand performance among countries.
Roll-Up Reporting comprises two types of properties:
Source Properties: Individual Analytics properties that include data from a single site, app, or internet-connected device.
Roll-Up Properties: Properties that serve as aggregators of the data from multiple Source Properties.
