Replicate Amazon DSP to Amazon Redshift in minutes

Amazon DSP is the demand-side platform that helps advertisers to buy video and ad placements programmatically. DSP shows which creative ad placement receives the most customer traffic and evaluates the customer retention rate. This platform generates several data such as Impressions, Cost, Clicks, Average CPC, Conversions, CTR by Ad Groups, CTR by Campaigns, Cost Per Conversion. So, consolidate all these data into a robust and scalable data warehouse like Amazon Redshift.  Replicating yourAmazon DSP data to Amazon Redshift will improve your business performance. This article presents an overview of Amazon DSP and Amazon Redshift integration. Above all, there are two different approaches to replicating your data. So, you can decide which method suits best for your business.

 

Why integrate Amazon DSP to Amazon Redshift? 

To understand the need for data integration, let us take a simple case. In this case, a seller calculates the overall business profits with this profit/loss formula:

Profits/Losses = Sales – Expenses.

The seller can acquire the sales data from the Amazon seller-central reports. Similarly, he can collect the marketing expense data from the Amazon DSP dashboard.  And there are other costs to consider, like warehousing, making, and shipping costs. However, Amazon DSP focuses on marketing data. Therefore, the final equation for profit/loss is:

Profits/Losses = (sales data from seller central – marketing expense incurred in Amazon DSP Ads).

Now, once the seller collects the sales and expense data, he will export these data to tools like Excel for further data analysis. However, if analysts pull data manually from different sources to software for evaluation, there are high chances of making errors. The seller might be using other marketing platforms like Google Ads, YouTube Ads, or Facebook Ads. So, collecting data from multiple apps will be time-consuming and lead to time lag. Therefore, analysts may not be able to produce real-time reports.

Sellers are spending a big budget on data analysis and reporting; they certainly want to see all of their data in one place. Data integration in a robust data warehouse like Redshift will provide a clear understanding of multiple aspects of your business. The consolidated data will let you analyze data in different categories like sales, expenses, total profit/loss and inventory.

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 Amazon DSP APIs & then connect it properly with the Redshift data warehouse. This whole process to build a custom data pipeline requires regular intervention which makes it cumbersome.
