Data Stream Network
Bring connectivity to any device, anywhere on Earth. Deliver data at massive scale - reliably, securely, and super-fast.
What Can You Do With the Data Stream Network?
Realtime Messaging (Global Pub/Sub)
Send and receive data cross-platform and cross-device - send a chat message, trigger a smart device command, stream IoT sensor data, swing a virtual sword, broadcast a notification.
Presence
Automatic realtime detection of device and user state to identify who and what is connected.
Mobile Push Notifications
APNS and GCM/FCM push notifications combined with realtime messaging for maximum user engagement.
Functions
A serverless environment to execute functions on the edge, transforming, enriching, and filtering messages as they route through the PubNub DSN.
Blocks
Pre-built Functions to integrate best-in-class 3rd party services - chatbots, translation, SMS, geolocation, and more.
How It Works
Connect
PubNub brings connectivity to any device, anywhere on Earth. A smartphone, a server, a sensor, a smart fridge, or even Internet-connected ambulances. The PubNub Network opens up the secure bidirectional communication channels and connects devices to send and receive data. With 70 SDKs and an extensible platform, PubNub ensures you can connect any type of device to where ever you want, and that’s where the power of realtime begins.
Deliver
Next-generation apps need a network that can handle realtime connections, at massive scale - low latency, high redundancy, high reliability. The PubNub Data Stream Network is delivers on this mission-critical need, empowering you to deliver data in realtime, reliably and securely, with a 99.999% uptime SLA.
Data delivery is more than just sending a message. It’s limitless - send a chat message, trigger a smart device command, stream IoT sensor data, swing a virtual sword, broadcast a notification.
Control
To build the future, you need to do more than just move data around. You need an infrastructure that enables you to act on the data in-motion, at the edge, with serverless compute. PubNub is extensible by design, and with PubNub Functions and Blocks, you can bring in best-in-class services, or build your own microservices, directly into the network.
We Take Security Seriously
PubNub DSN provides rich authorization, authentication, encryption, and legislative
security encircling every level, from network to user.
Encryption
TLS and AES256 encryption, plus support for BYOE (bring-your-own-encryption) models.
Access Control
PubNub Access Manager delivers fine-grain access control for every device and every channel.
Authorization Schemes
PubNub Functions support flexible authorization schemes via any OAuth and LDAP model.
Attack Prevention
No inbound open ports and instantaneous routing to different data centers to thwart regional attacks.
Legislation and Compliance
HIPAA Compliance, SOC 2 Compliant, Data Shield certified, and EU-only Data Storage options.
