VAST

VAST (The Video Ad Serving Template): A universal specification developed by IAB (Interactive Advertising Bureau) to serve video ads.

VAST is like a "script" for the ad, what it’s really doing is giving your video player consistent instructions on how to handle an ad. It tells your video player what the ad should do - how it should appear in the player, how long it should display, whether it is unanswered, where to find the ad (i.e., the ad server).

VPAID

VPAID (The Video Player-Ad Interface Definition): A universal specification developed by IAB for interaction between ad blocks and video players focused on "enabling an interactive experience rich in in-stream ads".

VPAID adds interactivity. As indicated on the IAB website, VAST supports video ad formats only in-stream. It allows compatible video players to display interactive multimedia ads. VPAID builds on VAST to enable advanced ad experiences and advanced viewer analytics.
