With more and more online software, Adobe chief executive Bruce Chizen said Adobe will release a free web version of Photoshop apps in the next few months. It is also possible to consider adopting a business model where consumers do not have to pay. But at the same time, Bruce Chizen also said that because the managed version of Photoshop can only be a low-end product, and network bandwidth will limit the user's experience, so this network version of Photoshop can only be accepted by a small number of consumer groups.
Adobe has invested a lot of human and financial resources for this web version of Photoshop, which is a program written in C, and the Web version uses Flex/flash programming techniques. In other words, the network version of Photoshop is completely a network development language and the use of B/s mode of the redevelopment of a software, users need to send the main image data to the Adobe hosted server for processing, server stability, data processing capabilities, network bandwidth status has become an important factor.
Adobe's software networking approach is a typical representation of software company changes: to protect their own software products market share is not a new software possession, but also to prevent piracy, and hope that their software products are widely used, that is, can not simply reduce the price of products, but also want users to consume the legitimate software products.
