Amazon Marketing Cloud vs InfoSum Data Clean Room

Amazon Marketing Cloud (AMC) is a cloud-based clean room for analytics and audience building across pseudonymized Amazon Ads signals and advertiser inputs. Built on AWS Clean Rooms, it brings together signals from Amazon properties, advertisers, and onboarded third-party providers for flexible querying. Advertisers can form audiences from engagement records, conversion events, and segments, then activate them for sponsored, video, and display ads. AMC can also measure customer journeys across Amazon Ads media and channels, including advertising impact at Amazon stores and advertiser-owned sites. Users can generate insights and visualizations without SQL using curated templates and Ads Agent assistance; SQL analysis is also supported. Ads Data Manager and related tools connect signals, while APIs support reporting, audience management, and first-party signal onboarding. Outputs are aggregated and anonymous, and advertiser-uploaded signals remain in a dedicated instance that Amazon cannot access or export. AMC provides 25 months of ad traffic signals and hundreds of campaign fields. It is available at no cost to eligible advertisers through web and API access.

InfoSum Data Clean Room matches and analyzes datasets across organizations without transferring the underlying data. Advertisers, publishers, data owners, commerce media businesses, data providers, and media owners can use first-party data for audience insights, identity translation, targeting, planning, activation, and campaign measurement. InfoSum describes its processing as decentralized and cloud agnostic, using non-movement technology and differential privacy. Personal identifiers are salted and hashed, data is encrypted at rest in decentralized Bunkers, and query results are aggregated with differential privacy techniques. Marketers have drag-and-drop tools and simple queries, while dataset owners can set, change, or revoke permissions. Data can be held in an InfoSum Bunker or a Beacon in a customer cloud or warehouse. Listed destinations include S3, sFTP, Google Cloud Storage, Snowflake Beacon Table, Google PAIR, Ads Data Manager, Customer Match, and DataX. The API supports data onboarding for accounts with an API key and appropriate settings and permissions. Pricing is available on request, and users must arrange platform access through InfoSum rather than self-registering.
