This scalable and real time technology was not possible in the past until PubSubHubBub protocol was introduced by Google. Previously, when a content was published the feed aggregator would poll the site at regular interval and check for new content.

With this technology, it would take several hours for the content to be available for the RSS subscribers. PubSubHubBub changed the ball game and made everything realtime. So, the RSS subscribers can read the content as soon as it is published.
