Summary

GoInstant, a platform designed to simplify the creation of real-time, collaborative apps, announced it would shut down on August 31, 2014, prompting users to migrate their data to PubNub. To aid this transition, PubNub offered tools and a step-by-step guide for exporting data from GoInstant and importing it into PubNub's globally replicated network. Users were encouraged to export their GoInstant data via a straightforward process involving the GoInstant Data Export tool, which downloads data in JSON format for subsequent import into PubNub using the GoInstant-to-PubNub Migration Tool. This process ensures the continued functionality of real-time applications as GoInstant customers transition to PubNub's services, which offer similar real-time infrastructure capabilities.
