Configure a Campaign Service

The Campaign service uses display counts to determine whether a Campaign has met its end goals. Each time an ad placeholder finds an ad to display as a result of a scenario action, the Campaign service updates the display count.

By default, the Campaign service does not update the display count in the database until an ad placeholder has found 10 ads to display as a result of one or more scenario actions. If the server crashes before the Campaign service flushes this display-count buffer to the database, you can lose display-count updates, up to the number of display counts that are in the buffer.

You can use the WebLogic Server Administration Console to determine the number of display counts that are stored in memory before the Campaign service updates the database:

To configure a Campaign Service:

1. In the Application Configuration Settings Resource tree, select Campaign Service.

   Note: If Campaign Service does not appear in the Resource tree to the left, follow the instructions Add or Remove a Configurable Item to add it, and restart this process at step 1.

2. Fill in the fields to configure the Campaign Service. For detailed descriptions of the Campaign Service configuration fields, see Campaign Service Configuration Parameters.

3. Click Update.

A message at the bottom of the window indicates that your changes have been applied.
