Case Study: Adobe achieves real-time collaborative digital publishing with PubNub

Adobe Powers Collaborative Digital Publishing Suite Using PubNub

Adobe’s Digital Publishing Solution (DPS) is a content-publishing platform that helps teams create and distribute mobile app experiences, with built-in collaboration for multiple contributors. To support simultaneous editing and keep all connected devices in sync, DPS needed a reliable, global real-time change-notification system and faced the choice of building backend infrastructure themselves or using a data-stream provider.

Adobe chose the PubNub Data Stream Network to power change notifications. PubNub’s Pub/Sub messaging and cross-platform SDK let DPS broadcast updates instantly across devices, enabling a smooth multi-user editor, easy integration, and global redundancy. The integration delivered a dependable real-time backend and a foundation for future features like mobile notifications and server-to-server alerts.
