Deliver Real-Time Device Communication and Control  Without the Complexity

Power low-latency, secure messaging between devices, services, and platforms without managing persistent connections or building custom infrastructure.

Launch Device Connectivity Fast with Production-Ready Infrastructure

Focus on building real-time device experiences while PubNub handles the complexity of cross-network delivery, global routing, and infrastructure reliability.

Cross-Network Messaging

Deliver real-time messages across firewalls, NATs, and complex topologies—no special configuration or custom transport layers required.

Lightweight SDKs for Constrained Devices

Connect devices with limited resources using efficient SDKs built for low memory, bandwidth, and CPU environments.

Sub-100ms Message Delivery

Stream telemetry, send commands, or sync state with consistent low-latency performance across global regions.

High Concurrency Without Socket Management

Scale to thousands of connected devices without managing persistent sockets, brokers, or connection pools.

Reliable Connections & Offline Recovery

Reconnect devices seamlessly and replay missed messages with built-in message history and buffering.

Monitor and Manage Every Device in Real Time

Operate distributed device networks with precision—track status, control behavior, and enforce security at scale.

Device Presence Tracking

Monitor online, idle, and offline device status in real time to improve responsiveness and fleet awareness.

Remote Commands & Control Logic

Send targeted commands or run control-plane logic using serverless Functions—no polling required.

Role-Based Access & Token Security

Enforce permissions with fine-grained access control and token-based security across devices, users, or environments.

Message Auditing & Delivery Insights

Debug communication issues and verify delivery status with built-in monitoring, auditing, and logging tools.

Stream, Sync, and Scale Messaging Globally

Power real-time device workflows across edge and cloud without worrying about infrastructure or regional performance.

Edge-Aware Routing & Global Reach

Deliver messages quickly and reliably with global PoPs and intelligent routing across regions.

Hybrid Cloud & Edge Compatibility

Run seamlessly in edge-first or hybrid environments without rewriting your architecture.

Scalable Architecture for IoT Workloads

Handle 10 or 10,000+ device connections with low latency, high throughput, and zero infrastructure management.

Integrate with Cloud & Data Platforms

Stream data into analytics systems, AI pipelines, or third-party platforms using Functions and APIs.
