关于客户
SiteScout is a company that offers a self-serve media buying platform, helping companies of all sizes to capitalize on the opportunity of real-time bidding (RTB) in digital marketing. The platform is integrated with all major ad exchanges, ad networks, supply-side, and data management platforms, including Google, Rubicon, Admeld, Pubmatic, OpenX, PulsePoint, Improve Digital, Proximic, Lotame, MoPub, Nexage, and Smaato. SiteScout works with thousands of advertisers, ranging from small and mid-size businesses to global brands, to optimize real-time advertising campaigns for greater profitability. The company’s platform manages more than 12 billion daily ad impressions in real time, across the Web and on mobile devices.
挑战
The SiteScout Platform, a demand-side platform (DSP) for real-time bidding and reporting, works with massive volumes of logged cookie matches and user data profiles to distribute targeted display ads with RTB functionality. To further maximize the penetration and reach of ads, SiteScout also offers a number of advanced DSP features, including auto-optimization, retargeting, and mobile traffic support. The demands of the DSP are heavy, requiring low-latency replies, high availability, and the ability to scale, as well as the ability to replicate data across multiple data centers. Early on, SiteScout recognized that a NoSQL database would be best suited for handling its large scale amounts of data. However, the first NoSQL database the company implemented failed to meet SiteScout’s performance demands. The initial NoSQL database was not a true, multi-threaded database, limiting the ability to effectively utilize the machine specification, which was a hugely limiting factor.
解决方案
After further research and evaluation, SiteScout chose to replace the current database with the Aerospike real-time NoSQL database and key-value store. The Aerospike database is specifically built for the demands of a DSP. Migrating the company’s data from the old NoSQL database to Aerospike was a straightforward process of re-implementing the database. The performance obtained with Aerospike was far greater than before. SiteScout deploys Aerospike clusters in each of three geographically distributed data centers: Los Angeles, Virginia, and Amsterdam. To synchronize data and ensure business continuity across these sites, SiteScout has implemented Aerospike’s cross data center replication in a complex ring topology. SiteScout also uses a combination of flash-based solid-state drive (SSD) and DRAM physical storage to maximize speed and scalability. This is facilitated by Aerospike’s native optimization for both flash and SSDs. Additionally, SiteScout uses the Google protobuf toolkit to write out data in the Aerospike database, compressing the data into a much smaller footprint and providing interoperability with any language. SiteScout also takes advantage of Aerospike’s Evictor time-to-live (TTL) feature, which automatically removes expired records once they have timed out.

Digital Transformation of Atlanta Grout & Tile: An IoT Case Study
Atlanta Grout & Tile, a Tile, Stone & Grout restoration company based in Woodstock, Georgia, was facing challenges with its traditional business model. Despite steady growth over the years, the company was falling behind the web revolution and missing out on the opportunity to tap into a new consumer base. They were using independent software from different vendors for each of their department information and workforce management. This resulted in a lot of manual work on excel and the need to export/import data between different systems. This not only increased overhead costs but also slowed down their response to clients. The company also had to prepare numerous reports manually and lacked access to customer trends for effective business decision-making.

7-Eleven Philippines Enhances Customer Support with Freshdesk
7-Eleven Philippines, a pioneer of 24-hour convenience stores in the country, was facing challenges with its customer support system.

They also had no visibility into the volume of calls, number of abandoned calls, etc. due to the use of the vendor’s telephony solution. This lack of control and visibility into customer support led the team to decide to bring the entire function in-house. They began exploring helpdesk solutions that would enable them to build a strong in-house support team.
