What is an ad server?

An ad server is an AdTech platform responsible for making decisions about what ads to show, serving them, and collecting and reporting data on impressions, clicks, etc.

Publishers, advertisers and ad agencies use ad servers to run multiple campaigns, often by connecting to other AdTech platforms, such as demand-side platforms and supply-side platforms.

Why build an ad server when you can rent one?

Building a custom ad server instead of using an existing solution provides the following advantages.

full ownership of the tech and IP

Ownership of the tech and intellectual property (IP)

Owning the technology and IP is crucial for tech companies but can also benefit other companies.

Control over the features and product roadmap

Being able to shape the ad server’s roadmap is key to being able to meet your business goals.

Reduction of fees and commissions

For companies with large media spend can reduce the commissions and fees paid to third-party ad servers.
