Abstract
Latency-reduced document change discovery in a co-authoring session is provided. When a co-authoring session is established between clients for co-authoring a document, a communication channel that is separate from a content channel is established between each client in the co-authoring session and a notification service. When a client uploads edits made to the document to a server-stored and managed master copy of the document, the client sends a notification on the separate channel to the other clients via the notification service, notifying the other clients that document changes have been made and are available to download from the content service. The other clients are enabled to discover document changes in real-time or in near real-time to when the changes are saved to the master copy of the document, and download the client edits for merging the changes with a local copy of the document.
