Ad Server

Ad servers are software platforms that store, manage, and deliver digital advertisements to end users across websites, apps, and connected devices. Publishers, broadcasters, advertisers, and agencies use ad servers to control where ads appear, to whom they're shown, and when they run. Publishers use them to fill and monetize their inventory. Advertisers and agencies use them to execute campaigns, track performance, and manage creative assets across multiple channels and formats. The category handles ad trafficking, real-time delivery, frequency capping, geographic targeting, and basic measurement and reporting on impressions served.
