 Real-time advertising platforms running bidding, ad serving, and verification workloads operate at ultra-low latency with throughput in the millions of transactions per second —24 hours a day.

Infrastructure costs for compute, databases, and networking also directly affect profit margins in ad tech—creating a strong incentive for customers to optimize price-performance.
