Strategies for Updating at Scale at Adobe

Adobe's near ubiquitous product adoption requires the ability to update a significant population of the Internet. As a result, this presents many unique challenges in defining a comprehensive update strategy. Not only is it required that updates ship for both consumers and enterprises across multiple operating systems, devices, and browsers, it also often needs to be completed very quickly with as little friction as possible. This presentation will discuss Adobe's approach with software updates and the lessons learned in the process.
