Datazoom Data Collectors
Datazoom customers use “collectors” to collect data to connectors (i.e., a customer’s preferred data tools, querying and visualization tools). Collectors are Datazoom software, including SDKs and libraries, that integrate with websites and native apps to capture a wide range of standardized, event-level user interaction and content consumption data. Collectors are also available for via or pull integrations with CDNs.
01
The Datazoom DaaS Platform has a range of collectors available for a wide-range of end-points from video players to CDNs.
Comprehensive Data Collection
Datazoom offers powerful and flexible SDKs, libraries and CDN integrations to auto-collect video and audio data and capture custom events and metadata beyond media players to provide a well-rounded, comprehensive approach to data collection.
Once a collector has been integrated into a webpage, application or CDN, it is automatically capable of collecting video and audio interactions and consumption. Collectors can also easily be set up to collect custom events and metadata. From within the Datazoom console, customers can determine which data is captured from a collector for any given data pipe.
This collected data is then available to be enriched, sampled, filtered, transformed and ultimately delivered to connectors for analysis, reporting, and decision-making.
Auto-Collection of Video Data
A standardized, comprehensive set of video-related events and metadata is automatically available for collection. Save time, money and resources by eliminating manual implementations and inconsistencies.
Custom Events and Metadata
Capture custom events and metadata beyond the video player for a holistic view of user engagement with simple, developer-friendly methods.
Collect a Minimally Viable Data Set with Sampling
Datazoom's advanced event sampling feature ensures optimal data collection by intelligently selecting a subset of events from each user session, preserving data accuracy while reducing processing overhead. This efficient approach maintains a comprehensive view of user interactions while enhancing performance.
Enrich Events with Backend Data
Enhance user engagement data with data available in disparate business systems, including user, ad and content management systems.

The Datazoom DaaS Platform collector library enables companies to quickly and easily identify sources for data, drop them onto the visual data pipe builder canvas, and configure them how they want the data to be processed and delivered.
