Operational Transformation (OT) is a technology and technique used in collaborative software systems to enable multiple users to edit shared data simultaneously without conflicts. It is particularly relevant in systems that require real-time collaboration, such as online document editors, messaging applications, and version control systems. The primary goal of OT is to ensure that all users see a consistent and synchronized view of shared data, even as concurrent changes are made.
