Adtech Traffic FilteringRTB Traffic Optimization Solution
A millisecond-class bid competition. Block meaningless bot traffic upstream and run ultra-low-latency preprocessing to maximize win rates and cut cloud cost.
Hardware & Software Solution
Problem
The Hidden Bottleneck in Programmatic Advertising Infrastructure
Why timeouts still happen even after scaling servers
A DSP has to analyze the bid request, compute the optimal price, and respond within 100ms. In practice, nearly half of that window is spent preprocessing meaningless traffic that will never even win. OS kernel delay at peak hours translates directly into RTB timeouts and lost revenue — and the simple answer of adding more servers eats straight into operating margin.RTB Response Timeout
Missing the 100ms bid response window means lost revenue opportunity. Preprocessing delay translates directly into sales loss.
Meaningless Traffic Surge
Hundreds of thousands of fake bid requests and bot traffic per second drain the compute resources of the main bid logic.
Exponential Infrastructure Cost
Aggressively scaling out servers to hold throughput drives cloud billing that erodes margin.
Solution
How Akritai Removes the Bottleneck and Returns Your Margin
Fewer servers — timeout-free, end to end.
No matter how hard traffic spikes, latency never exceeds 3µs. Akritai drops abnormal traffic immediately in front of the existing main logic, blocking downstream system load at the source — and maximizes throughput on the same hardware without adding servers.O(1) Architecture — Absolute Speed
Classifies and blocks traffic at the byte level with no complex parsing overhead, eliminating latency variance.
Early Bot Blocking
Meaningless traffic is filtered at the topmost layer, preventing CPU waste on the main server.
Kernel Bypass & Lock-Free
Removes OS kernel interference and memory lock contention — delivers full performance even under simultaneous concurrent bid requests.
Features
Key Technical Strengths
Ultra-Low-Latency Bid Preprocessing (P99 < 3µs)
Cuts preprocessing that used to take milliseconds down to nanoseconds, guaranteeing timeout-free stability.
Millions of QPS per Second
A C++ engine built for extreme efficiency handles millions of simultaneous bid requests on the same hardware spec.
Real-Time Abuse Defense
Blocks ad fraud and malicious bot traffic before it reaches the main logic, saving unnecessary network bandwidth and resources.
Zero-Code Drop-In Deployment
Slot in as a sidecar with no code changes to the existing DSP/SSP application — not a single line.
