BUILDING A SECURE, SCALABLE CUSTOMER DATA PLATFORM FOR A LARGE ADVERTISING HOLDING COMPANY

Client Overview

 

Our friends at a large advertising holding company engaged The Data Sherpas (TDS) to collaborate with their teams to identify current, near-term, and long-term goals. We launched the client’s AWS account from scratch and built a secure, scalable customer data platform to handle PII data in less than three months.

Project Scope

The project involved creating a robust data platform to onboard data from over 100 external sources daily, ensuring high availability and security.

Results

The platform contributed to a twenty percent revenue increase in its first year. Over a five-year relationship, TDS provided continuous support in technology strategy, data strategy, platform development, operations, and support. The platform’s robust design and implementation ensured it could meet evolving business needs and efficiently handle vast amounts of data.
