Deploy a Prebid Server to manage ad auction requests with AWS infrastructure

Publication date: May 2024 (last update: October 2024)

Prebid Server Deployment on AWS helps customers deploy and operate Prebid Server, an open source solution for real-time ad monetization, in their own Amazon Web Services (AWS) environment. The solution enables customers with ad-supported websites to achieve scaled access to advertising revenue through a community of more than 180+ advertising platforms. Customers achieve full control over decision logic and access to transaction data, and realize AWS benefits like global scalability and pay-as-you-go economics. This solution hosts the Prebid Server executable program in a cost-effective way for a variety of request loads—5,000-100,000 requests per second (RPS)—and captures operational and transaction logs from each Prebid Server container for analysis and reporting.

This implementation guide provides an overview of Prebid Server Deployment on AWS, its reference architecture and components, considerations for planning the deployment, configuration steps for deploying the solution to the AWS Cloud.

This guide is intended for solution architects, business decision makers, DevOps engineers, data scientists, and cloud professionals who want to implement Prebid Server Deployment on AWS in their environment.
