New case study explores how SiteScout averages 1-millisecond response times and ensures continuity across three data centers using Aerospike
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. – The rise of real-time bidding (RTB) has created unprecedented opportunity for digital marketers to bid on individual ad impressions based on how likely they are to reach target audiences. SiteScout is helping companies of all sizes to capitalize on this opportunity with its self-serve media buying platform. A new case study examines how SiteScout relies on the Aerospike real-time NoSQL database and key-value store to manage more than 12 billion daily ad impressions in real-time, across the Web and on mobile devices. The full SiteScout case study is available at: http://www.aerospike.com/why-aerospike/customers.

SiteScout Case Study
The new case study explores the factors that led SiteScout to choose Aerospike as a critical component of its demand-side platform (DSP). It also reviews how SiteScout has deployed Aerospike clusters in three data centers to bring data closer to customers while ensuring 100% uptime. Key benefits that SiteScout has realized with Aerospike include:
- Averages 1-millisecond response times while managing some 12 billion ad impressions each day.
- Enables more efficient use of resources through Aerospike Evictor time-to-live (TTL) feature, which automatically removes expired data records.
- Enables SiteScout to locate closer to consumers while ensuring business continuity across three data centers through Aerospike’s cross data center replication functionality.
- Supports cost-effective use of storage hardware through a hybrid architecture combining the speed of RAM and reliability of flash via the native flash Aerospike database.
“Even as we’ve pushed the envelope, Aerospike has performed very well for us, and on average, we’re getting 1-millisecond response times,” said Paul Mokbel, SiteScout founder and CEO. “Our system stability has also improved dramatically, and our confidence in the systems handled by Aerospike has soared. We genuinely love this database.”
“Founded by media buying professionals, SiteScout understands first-hand that it’s not how much money you spend on advertising, but rather how effectively you spend it,” said Brian Bulkowski, Aerospike founder and CTO. “We are thrilled by SiteScout’s success in using our Aerospike database in enabling marketers from companies of all sizes to bid intelligently on relevant opportunities in real-time, 100% of the time to maximize their profitability.”
