CEO Simon Szczepankowski向我们透露了Buddy持续交付平台，该平台能够让智能合约的应用变得简单
你会怎么描述Buddy呢
Simon Szczepankowski:这是为基于EOSIO的去中心化应用(DAPP)设计的持续交付平台。利用Buddy，建立和部署EOSIO的DAPP能够实现自动化。它简化了每次代码发生变化时区块链上的智能合约的发布流程。这能省下很多时间，也就允许EOS开发者关注新的代码而不是一次又一次地运行命令。对于EOS全球黑客马拉松来说这也是完美的平台，毕竟届时会产生大量的app更新。Buddy的自动化能够让前端实现变得轻轻松松。
最初的想法是从哪里来的呢？
Simon Szczepankowski ：作为企业，我们已经帮很多链下开发者自动化工作了。我们的链下处理方案已经被很多公司使用，其中就包括INC。杂志和业内领先的外包公司CGI。区块链革命即将到来，此时我们决定要通过调整我们的平台，支持基于区块链的DAPP参与进这场革命。
说一说您的团队吧，他们有什么出众之处呢？
Simon Szczepankowski：我们公司有20个员工，大多数都是开发者，在持续集成和交付上有多年的经验。我们的处理方案是开发者写给开发者的，这就是我们热爱我们工作的地方。谷歌、亚马逊云服务和Github都承认我们工作的价值，他们都通过自己的市场把Buddy发布给他们的用户。
目前你们的项目处于哪个阶段呢？您有什么扩展的计划呢？
Simon Szczepankowski：Buddy是一个不断改进的产品，我们也会长期致力于EOSIO。我们的团队一直紧跟EOSIO最新的发展，升级我们的EOSIO支持，这样开发者们才能不受干扰地建立和创造产品。我们很快会让Buddy开源，在我们继续提供专业工具帮助开发者更快地建立更好地EOS DAPP的同时，我们希望能够和EOS社区保持紧密合作。
您为什么决定利用区块链技术，又为什么特别选中EOSIO技术呢？
Simon Szczepankowski：我们从EOSIO开始是因为“变化”植根在它的DNA里的。正如口号所说：“基于改变。基于EOSIO。”EOS允许现有的智能合约代码进行更新，Buddy通过实现所有相关维护措施的自动化让这个过程变得更加便捷。此外，EOS每秒能够进行几千次交易，其附加费用小、确认次数少，这些都让它在下一代区块链中成为佼佼者。能够成为这将带来的革新中的一员，我们非常高兴。
EOS社区怎么看您的项目呢？
Simon Szczepankowski：一开始，人们还很惊讶EOS才发布没多久就已经有了一套优秀的DevOps工具，但是人们都认同，这让整个生态系统变得更好。我们现在也把EOS引入我们应用的用户基础和网络开发者中。他们可以马上在他们利用EOS的项目中增加信任逻辑。有些开发者可能一开始还觉得区块链的应用是遥远的将来的事情，但是我们在此已经做出贡献了，对我们来说，这就是了不起的成就了。

CEO Simon Szczepankowski gives us the lowdown on Buddy’s continuous delivery platform, which makes smart contract implementation easy
How would you describe Buddy?
Simon Szczepankowski: It’s a continuous delivery platform for EOSIO-based DAPPs. With Buddy, building and deploying EOSIO DAPPs is automated; it streamlines the release of smart contracts on the blockchain every time a change is introduced to the code. This saves a lot of time and allows EOS developers to focus more on new coding rather than running lots of commands time after time. It’s also perfect for EOS Global Hackathons when there are a lot of app iterations. Buddy’s automation makes front-end implementation a breeze.
Where did your initial idea come from?
Simon Szczepankowski: As a company, we already help off-chain developers automate their work. Our off-chain solution is used by companies like INC. Magazine and CGI, a leading outsourcing company. As the blockchain revolution got underway, we decided to be part of it by adapting our platform to support blockchain-based DAPPs.
Can you introduce your team and tell us what makes it special?
Simon Szczepankowski: We’re a company of 20 people, mostly developers, with many years of experience in continuous integration and delivery. Our solutions are made for developers by developers, and that is what we love about our work. The value of our work is recognized by organizations such as Google, Amazon Web Services and Github, all of which deliver Buddy to their users via their own marketplaces.
What stage is the project at and what are your plans for scaling up?
Simon Szczepankowski: Buddy is a working product and our commitment to EOSIO is a long-term one. Our team continuously keeps up with the newest EOSIO developments and updates our EOSIO support so that developers can keep building and creating without interruption. Buddy will soon be open-sourced, and we hope to keep engaging the EOS community as we continue to offer dedicated tooling to help developers build better EOS DAPPs faster.
Why did you decide to use blockchain technology, and specifically EOSIO?
Simon Szczepankowski: We started with EOSIO because change is part of its DNA. As the slogan says: “Build on Change. Build on EOSIO.” EOS allows the code of existing smart contracts to be updated, and Buddy facilitates this by automating all the maintenance involved. Also, EOS, with its ability to process thousands of transactions per second, and its minimal associated fees and confirmation times, is the best next-generation blockchain. We’re excited to be part of the transformation this brings.
How has the EOS community responded to your project?
Simon Szczepankowski: At first, people were surprised that EOS had a dedicated DevOps tool so soon after its release but there is a general recognition that it makes the ecosystem even more exciting. We are now also introducing EOS to our current user-base of app and web developers. They can instantly add trust logic to their projects using EOS. It’s huge for us that we’ve been able to contribute to blockchain adoption among developers who may have thought it was something from the distant future.
