Abstract: A distributed computing system is configured to compute operational data for a video advertisement delivery system. Cloud-based resource are used to calculate operational parameters such as geographical data, unique advertisement delivery instances and segments of consumers that received the video advertisements.

Abstract: The disclosure provides technology for managing the placement of advertisements. An ad insertion platform contains one or more lists that allow the ad insertion platform to filter advertisement placements and manage placing advertisement opportunities to the appropriate buyers. The disclosure also provides a database and monitoring software to allow faster querying and management of data for the real time bidding system.

Abstract: Techniques and systems for operating a video ad exchange includes controlling an ad server to receive ad requests from viewer devices, provide ad responses to viewer devices, generate an ad delivery data file that includes information about delivery of ads to the viewer devices, and transfer the ad delivery data file to a distributed computing cloud. The technique further includes controlling an ad data infrastructure mechanism to download the cloud-based ad delivery data file into a local memory, and process the copied ad delivery data file to generate billing data. An ad data infrastructure mechanism receives a configuration file from the ad server, verifies that all items in the configuration file from the ad server were used in the generation of the first billing data, and removes non-verifiable items from the first billing data to generate a final billing data.

Abstract: A digital media advertisement delivery system comprising a real time bidding (RTB) platform and a plurality of bidder computers. The RTB platform is configured to receive an indication of an opportunity to display a digital media advertisement to a consumer, and generating a bid request for auctioning the opportunity to a plurality of bidders, the bid request comprising a plurality of fields including information about the opportunity. The plurality of bidder computers are configured to receive the bid request comprising a first plurality of fields including information about the opportunity, decide, based on the received information in the plurality of fields, whether or not to bid, and send a bid response, when decision is to bid, comprising a second plurality of response fields, at least some of which include information in direct response to the first plurality of fields.

Abstract: A networked advertisement exchange system is described. The system includes a memory comprising a set of exchange rules, and a processor. The processor is configured to receive, from a client, an advertisement request, send, to each of a plurality of advertisement servers, a right-to-bid request, and receive, from each of the plurality of advertisement servers, a response to the right-to-bid request, each response comprising a bid price or a pass. The processor is also configured to select, based on the set of exchange rules, the winning response from the plurality of responses, and provide, to the client in response to the advertisement request, information for an advertisement associated with the winning response. The advertisement is a video. Methods and machine-readable media are also described.
