I worked in a advertising network company which is a major player of one city. I re-write the ad-serving algorithm to solve some of the problems. That piece of code is running 24/7 for 5+ years. If you are in that city and browsing the web. It will run through my code path.

I think Manta is better if the result set is smaller than input set. So network performance won't matter that much. And also a per second pricing is better since the author need the result in 10 seconds.
Spinning up a cluster of VMs and use 10 seconds and they charge you min. 1 hour seems expensive to me.

SmartOS is a good choice. They provide KVM and joyent opensource their SmartDataCenter https://github.com/joyent/sdc
so you can provision VM with API.
They are developing for LXC which will give you better performance in the future.

I work in AdTech too. I'm still looking for a perfect counter solution. The counter we are using always overrun (which is better than up/down/up/down). We still manage to hack it by patching the number periodically.
p.s. I am working in an Ad Network but not plugging into exchange. Our system is not capable for that.

I am using Stash also. Love the new side-by-side diff. We switched from Gitlab to Stash few months ago. Mainly because Stash upgrade was way easier than Gitlab at that time.
