Mumbai: Adobe Systems Incorporated has announced that Disney.com is leveraging Adobe video solutions to create and deliver rich interactive experiences. Over the past several months, Disney.com has experienced record online traffic levels as viewers logged on to watch full-length movies delivered via the Adobe Flash Platform, the de facto standard for delivering interactive content, applications, and video on the Web.

The announcement coincides with the keynote address at Adobe MAX 2008 North America in San Francisco, Calif. where Disney Interactive Media Group chief technology officer Bud Albers is showcasing Disney.com’s success with online video streaming.
