Integrate Bing Ads to Redshift in minutes

Bing Ads is a popular advertising platform that places your ads in front of the Bing network to generate awareness, engagement, and sales. While Microsoft does provide metrics and analysis of Bing Ads data, decision-makers want to analyze the insights of their online marketing campaigns, especially with other marketing efforts and the performance of their business as a whole. Replicate Bing Ads data to Redshift within minutes and focus on analyzing your advertisement spending and performance data. Combine your bing data with other marketing tools and systems to gain deeper insights into your marketing data.

 

Why integrate Bing Ads to Redshift?

If your company is advertising on the Bing network, chances are your Bing Ads data is unseen and unused for operations, insights, and decision making. When data is stuck in data silos, it often sits untapped. Take control of your data, integrate Bing Ads data to Redshift, and perform the in-depth analysis you need for better visibility and more conversions. Having your Bing Ads data into the Redshift data warehouse as your marketing, support, and sales will give you a broader and more meaningful understanding of your ads spend, ROI, and business performance.

 

Bing Ads Overview

Bing Ads is an online advertising platform offered by Microsoft that allows businesses to create and manage search and display ad campaigns on Bing & Yahoo search engines. It allows advertisers to target audiences based on keywords and they get charged when a user clicks on a promoted search result. Bing Ads has enormous potential for businesses of all sizes, especially those with smaller budgets. Bing Ads are incredibly effective as they give you a great advantage to reach hyper-specific audiences looking for exact terms that you’re targeting.

 

Redshift Overview

Amazon Redshift is a cloud-based data warehouse solution offered by Amazon. The platform provides a storage system that lets companies store petabytes of data. Redshift takes full advantage of Amazon’s cloud server infrastructure and is designed for big data as it can scale easily because of the modular node design. It is a fully managed warehouse, so administrative tasks like configuration, maintenance backups, and security are completely automated. Amazon Redshift offers the performance, speed, and scalability required to address your data warehousing and ETL needs.

 

How to replicate Bing Ads to Redshift?

Here’s an overview of the two approaches you can use to replicate Bing Ads data to Redshift. This will allow you to evaluate the pros and cons of both and choose the one that best suits your requirement.

Build your own data pipeline

This process needs a lot of experience and consumes a lot of time and manpower. The chances of errors are more due to multiple integrated steps to be executed one after the other. You need to extract data using Bing Ads APIs & then connect it properly with the Redshift data warehouse. This whole process to build a custom data pipeline requires regular intervention that makes it cumbersome.
