# RTB Ecosystem

The mission of the RTB project is to spur greater growth in the Real-Time Bidding (RTB) marketplace by providing open industry standards for communication between buyers of advertising and sellers of publisher inventory. There are several aspects to these standards including but not limited to the actual real-time bidding protocol, information taxonomies, offline configuration synchronization, and many more. This document specifies a standard for the Real-Time Bidding Interface. 

These protocol standards aim to simplify the connection between suppliers of publisher inventory (i.e., exchanges, networks working with publishers, and sell-side platforms) and competitive buyers of that inventory (i.e., bidders, demand side platforms, or networks working with advertisers). The overall goal of RTB is to create a lingua franca for communicating between buyers and sellers. 

The intent is not to regulate exactly how each business operates. As a project, we aim to make integration between parties easier, so that innovation can happen at a deeper level at each of the businesses in the ecosystem.
