Case Study: Adobe achieves faster, more productive creative workflows with MySQL

Adobe Relies on MySQL to Make Creative Professionals More Productive

Adobe Systems, a leading provider of creative tools including Adobe Creative Suite CS3, faced common workgroup challenges: designers unable to open files in use, time lost hunting for the latest versions, accidental overwrites, and inefficient feedback consolidation that slowed projects and increased rework.

Adobe embedded MySQL in components such as Acrobat, Bridge and Version Cue to enable local file browsing and thumbnails, fast metadata search, safe concurrent editing, controlled PDF reviews and visibility into who is editing files. MySQL’s easy embedding, reliability, low administration and high performance reduced conflicts, sped up searches and review cycles, and boosted workgroup productivity.
