As StubHub evolved from a lightweight website to one that was rich with images, videos and custom views from seat locations at event venues around the world, it sought a way to streamline image management. The company implemented Cloudinary, which enabled it to significantly reduce the time required to manually edit images, while ensuring that the key focal points of each image were viewable in more than 30 viewports across a multitude of devices. Cloudinary’s digital asset management capabilities also have helped StubHub better protect its content, creating a single repository that ensures developers and designers have access to only the most current images and understand the associated brand guidelines.
