Early Migrations
Arbory Digital's story begins when Day Software asked for help migrating a CQ system from 4.2i to 5.2.5. This partnership led to a role leading the migration of Kellogg's data from a custom-built system into CQ 5.3. While at Kellogg's, Adobe purchases Day Software.
2010 - 2011
World Bank's New CMS
With the success of the Kellogg’s migration, the World Bank reached out for help designing and implementing their new CMS (leveraging CQ 5.3). In June of 2011, led by an Arbory Digital founder, the first of many global subsites launched on their new platform.
2011 - 2012
Upgrading Adobe.com
As reputations grew in the industry, Adobe requested assistance leading their upgrade from CQ 5.3 to CQ 5.5. Arbory Digital’s CEO worked with the Day CQ product engineering team to improve legacy functionality and test the not yet released CQ 5.5 version. The upgrade of adobe.com was completed in March 2012 (just in time for Adobe Summit!) making it the first site world wide on CQ 5.5.
2012 - 2013
First AEM PhoneGap App
After migrating adobe.com, Ford contracted AEM Experts from Arbory Digital to architect and lead their new electric vehicle mobile application, MyFordMobile. The mobile framework, PhoneGap (recently acquired by Adobe) was used to implement the mobile application. The team worked directly with Adobe engineers to build the first application ever managed in AEM and built with PhoneGap.
2015 - 2019
