WHAT IS ILSA?

ILSA processes incoming vehicle inventory at lightning speed, ensuring visitors find the right results immediately. It offers fast search, reliable filters, structured vehicle presentation, and enriched ad results with third-party data. This makes vehicle data not only searchable but also presented more completely and relevantly on your platform.

​

Datasets from more than 500,000 vehicles are processed with response times under 40 milliseconds. Performance remains stable across thousands of concurrent dealer environments.

​

ILSA remains automatically synchronized with updates from the source. Vehicles that change are updated immediately. Vehicles that are deregistered disappear without manual intervention.

WHY ILSA?

Built for automotive

ILSA has been built from the ground up with the specific requirements of the sector as the starting point. Vehicle types, attributes, filter logic, and presentation have been incorporated based on decades of industry experience.

Performance at high volumes

Large inventories, peak loads, and multiple simultaneous dealer environments are no problem. ILSA has been tested and is operational in environments with more than 500,000 vehicles and response times under 40 milliseconds.

ILSA and DV are designed to work together. Feedback on publication status and delivery status is available. Leads coming in via the platform can be forwarded to an LMS or CRM.

Integration with DV

ILSA also supports image delivery and hosting, ad enrichment with third-party data, and additional functionality that can be activated step-by-step. The portal scales along without the need to rebuild the foundation.

Via DV, inventory flows automatically to the correct destinations. Through ILSA, that same data will be immediately available for searching, filtering, vehicle detail pages, and image delivery to the user side.
