From Flash to the Cloud: Adobe’s Journey
In 1992 a small but ambitious team launched Adobe, aiming to give people creative tools to bring their visions to life. It wasn’t until Flash stole the limelight – the first true web‑animation superstar – that everyone started humming “Adobe” like a catchy jingle.
Oh, and did we mention Photoshop and PDF?
While many remember Flash, Adobe quietly built two household names that will haunt our screens forever: Photoshop – the paint‑and‑filter wizard – and PDF – the file format that never talks back.

Fueled by a R&D powerhouse, Adobe leapt into the cloud arena. Today you’ll find them offering Creative Cloud and Document Cloud. With over 10 million people streaming their artwork, speed, and documents through their services, the company re‑defines “subscription” chic.
