Adobe: Creative Cloud Product Innovation
BairesDev provided expert C++ and Cloud engineers to help Adobe build high-performance collaborative features within the Creative Cloud suite.
The story
behind it
Adobe sought to transform their desktop-centric design suite into a truly collaborative, cloud-first platform. This required deep low-level engineering and a robust DevOps foundation to support real-time sync.
What stood in the way
Enabling real-time collaborative editing on massive graphic files while ensuring sub-millisecond sync across geographically distributed teams.
How we made it happen
We utilized WebAssembly to bring native C++ performance to the browser and implemented a Geo-distributed backend on AWS using Terraform for infrastructure as code.
Impact that speaks
Users Impacted
Successfully rolled out new collaboration features to millions of active subscribers.
Cost Reduction
Optimized the render farm infrastructure leading to significant AWS cost savings.
Market Speed
Reduced the time from feature conception to production deployment across the suite.
