Can you introduce us to Amazon Publisher Cloud and explain how it fits within Amazon's suite of ad tech brands?

Built on AWS Clean Rooms, Amazon Publisher Cloud is a collaboration service that enables publishers to plan, activate, and measure programmatic deals, informed by the ability to analyze their first-party signals together with insights from Amazon Ads. 

APC is the only service that allows publishers to securely overlay their first-party data with Amazon Ads insights, to create programmatic deals that improve customer experiences with more relevant advertising. For the first time, advertisers can activate campaigns based on how proprietary publisher signals overlap against in-market and affinity segments from Amazon Ads (e.g. pet food shoppers, health and fitness enthusiasts), to reach high-intent audiences at scale. APC-generated deals are optimized to drive more efficient campaign reach among advertisers’ desired audiences, and can be seamlessly activated across formats, properties, categories, and transaction types in Amazon DSP.
