Google Display & Video 360

You can send your first- and third-party data linked to Oracle Data Cloud cookies and mobile advertising IDs (MAIDs) to the Google Display & Video 360 platform (formerly known as Double Click Manager or DBM).

Google Display & Video 360 is Google's demand-side platform (DSP), which is integrated with Google's ad exchange (AdX) and other RTB sources. You can use Google Display & Video 360 to activate your Oracle Data Cloud platform data in real time with Google's proprietary technology for bidding, targeting, and optimization. This enables you to display ad inventory across ad exchanges, while using data to target the right audiences and placements and optimizing bids in real-time to maximize the performance of your media campaigns.

You can create audiences in Oracle Data Cloud platform containing cookie or MAID data and have those audiences automatically added to your advertiser account in Google Display & Video 360.

Important! Make sure to follow the Google naming standards for audiences that include third-party data.
