Acquisition Update: Adserver Conversion Ahead of Schedule
Dr. Fodé Touré, development lead & architect, provides detailed update on the status of converting Adbank’s first acquired ad network, EcigMedia.
With the acquisition of ECigMedia and the conversion of their platform (based on Adbutler), Adbank has reached the third phase of its roadmap.
The technical complexity in the conversion lay in the retention of the usual ECigMedia operating mode. ECigMedia operates around the Adbutler administration tool.
Clearly, in converting ECigMedia to ADB token, we are required to keep all workflow related to Adbutler and convert all monetary activities.
There was also a question of simplifying the administrative tasks of the new ECigMedia ecosystem. For this, we have created a semi-automatic interface (TMS Interface) between ECigMedia (Adbutler) and Adbank’s Token Management API.
The following diagram summarizes the simplified workflow of the ECigMedia administrator.
In addition, we implement the concept of the secure batch transaction as shown in the following figure. This reduces the cost of gas.
Deployed and orchestrated via Kubernetes, TMS Interface integrates the Coinmarcket API to facilitate the conversion of USD to ADB token. In addition to a dashboard, TMS Interface offers three main functions:
Through the Adbutler API, we automatically create an internal wallet for all Publishers and Advertisers from Adbutler’s import accounts.
The main goal of ECigMedia conversion is to allow transactions between Advertiser and Publisher in ADB Token. We use TMS Interface for that purpose.
With the Coinmarket API, TMS Interface allows converting USD to ADB Token.
This conversion of ECigMedia, amply demonstrates Adbank’s ability to convert any payment platform into ADB, using the Token Manager API and if necessary by adding an intermediary like TMS Interface.
All Adbutler’s customer can easily completely convert their payment system in ADB Token and any company wishing to use ADB Token can do it with great simplicity.
