Understanding the Challenge
2045 reached out with a very big vision of creating a platform that would help all marketing agencies in the world reduce their advertisement creation and operations efforts across multiple advertisement platforms.
2045 was already providing advertising strategies and executing them for numerous organizations worldwide. But with this vision, 2045 wanted to provide a service to all other marketing agencies worldwide. With this vision of automating marketing operations and combining all platforms under one platform 2045 approached us with the problem
Advertising platforms to be integrated:
- DV360
- TTD
- XANDR
- Youtube
- Amazon DSP
- Adwords
- Yahoo
Each of these platforms had over 300 APIs, and integrating with all of them could take years if not months. We had to think creatively and create a system that allowed for incremental integration.
How We Made It Happen
The aim was to create a platform that integrates with all advertisement platforms with minimal changes. The platform was to help marketing agencies create campaigns on all advertising platforms with a single click or with a unified strategy.
2045 partnered with us, considering our vast expertise in product strategy and product engineering and our ability to provide valuable insights transparently. We were rookies in the advertising domain, but with their experts, we got a good understanding of the advertising space and helped us focus on what we do best is BUILD SYSTEMS.
The 2045 team mapped out the standard database models of all the major advertising players. They then created a database with all common entities rolled up in a single 2045 database called the master database. The nuances of each platform were added to a platform-specific info table. This structure helped us map out commonalities and nuances separately.
We started small with the aim of building this common platform for DV360 and TTD and then expand it to other platforms like XANDR etc. This approach helped us start small and prevented us from being overwhelmed with these complex API systems.
The next strategy was to create a JSON mapper that maps all different systems to the common 2045 giant system through s simple JSON mapper. The purpose of the JSON mapper was to map out different elements in each API to common elements in the 2045 system and platform-specific elements to the platform-specific info table.
This JSON mapper for each API then ran through a data mapper that created the request body for the API with the correct mappings. This was then passed to the API orchestration system where the API was constructed and called. The API response was again passed through the Data Mapper to map the response data with the data in the 2045 system. Eventually the response was saved back in the 2045 system. This generic engine was the crux of the project. Once this engine was built the 2045 system could easily be scaled with only the JSON mapping process. Our CTO Ratnadeep, along with the 2045 team, built this system and trivialized the problem of mapping over 5000 APIs to JSON mappings.
How BetaCraft Made
a Difference
01
Quantum Path helped create a system that aimed to integrate with 4000 APIs and 15 platforms.
02
Quantum Path built a system that could easily integrate with almost 50 APIs in over 15 days with the JSON mapping process.
03
No one has attempted to integrate all the ad platforms into one. We are trying to build a one of a kind system.
