The software has become a thing we all cannot do without, either knowingly or unknowingly we make use of different software to communicate, do business, interact with different entities around the globe.
Teams have collaborated online from different corners of the world, the Github version control has been a home where teams can contribute to developing a different application, and be able to roll back and front different version of their code.
Most developers have been found to repeat themselves while developing different applications or software. The buddy project is a state of the art project that enables developers to automate their app development cycle. The idea is that good developer's don't need to repeat themselves.
Buddy A Decentralized Development Automation Platform
Buddy is a decentralized automation platform that enables developers around the globe unload all the task that needs to be unloaded. They unload everything that needs to be automated enabling the developer to spend better time thinking creatively on the major task at hand, rather than spend a considerable amount of time on things that can be automated.
The buddy platform has been in existence since the 2016 and over 7,000 developers around the world use the buddy platform to develop and automate their development processes. Their fundamental goal is to dominate the ever-growing automation industry that is currently valued at about $110 billion and it is expected to triple within the next few years.
How Does Buddy Works?
The buddy platform works as the fundamental territory for all developers who want to write their program without needing to go through all the constant repetitive and usual stuff that can be automated to save time for more pressing needs, to be able to finish the development process a lot faster and better.
The buddy platform allows developers to adapt to the DevOps model more easily.
What is DevOps?
According to Wikipedia they best define what DevOps is and below is the definition as found on their website.
DevOps is a software development methodology that combines software development with information technology operations. The goal of DevOps is to shorten the systems development life cycle while also delivering features, fixes, and updates frequently in close alignment with business objectives.
The DevOps revolution is evolving due to the high demand for mobile, web, and business services. Therefore, implementing a fully automated, integrated systems is a must to keep pace with the high volume of software delivery requirements.
Financial Organizations need an automated way to develop and deploy software in an accelerated time frame.
Benefits Of The DevOps Development Model.
Speed Of Deployment: As the demand for different mobile, web and business application continues to increase, developers need to automate several repetitive and usual stuff and significantly meet business requirement and deadlines.
Improved Processes: The DevOps development model represents a careful combination of developers, processes, and technology. A mix of technology enthusiast from both the development and operational perspective. The combination of these highly technical experts enables them to streamline their development processes, thus improving communication between teams and significantly reduce development time.
Lower Costs: Other development models like the waterfall, big bang model or iterative model requires long development turnaround time for application deployment. These require more manpower and computing resources which are not free. The DevOps development model enables developers to streamline their processes and project deliveries they can significantly enhance productivity.
Effective Collaboration: The DevOps model has a changing culture among developers, which enables them to allocate development task more easily into modules like the developers, testers and operation teams. These teams work collaboratively while effectively communicating between themselves.
Continuous Feedbak: This is one of the most principal benefits of the DevOps development model. It is the aspect of the software development cycle that involves continuous integration, continuous testing, continuous delivery and continuous delivery in the software development cycle.
The buddy platform has helped ease the development process or challenges developers face while developing an application and they have helped by adopting the DevOps Model to continuously ease development cycle, reduce cost, improved the software development process and continuously delivers high-end applications while solving the challenges organizations face while developing their application, challenges such as:
- Mentality & Culture
- Legacy Infrastructure
- App Complexity
- Integration of Tools
- Neglecting Test Automation
- No DevOps Plan
- Lack of Training
- Too Many Tools
Three Features Of Buddy Platform Pre-ICO:
The buddy platform achieves its development goal by restricting developers into three features:
Automation Pipelines: A process that checkmates and ensures every change to the system is releasable and any version can be released with the click of a button. The platform has more than 70+ ready to use automated steps which are given to the developers.
Sandboxes: A sandbox is a testing environment that isolates untested code changes and gives application preview before deploying them. The buddy platform supports a variety of environment which may include but not limited to Node.js, Python, WordPress, PHP . . .
Integration: Buddy integration provides a comprehensive support for well-known integration vendors like Github, slack, Shopify, Microsoft Azure among many others. It helps improve workflow and connect buddy to its partners.
The buddy platform provided these features way before the Crowdsale. and after their Crowdsale additional three features would be added to the platform, which includes:
Automation GRID: This is a decentralized infrastructure, put in place to run an unlimited automation task for app development.
DevOps Marketplace: This is more an app store for developers where developers can upload their automation solutions for other developers to see and collaborate.
The buddy platform is already in partnership with major cloud leaders which include: Github, Google Cloud, Azure, aws marketplace. The DevOps marketplace is part of the ecosystem that would be developed after the Crowdsale.
BlockchainOps: This feature enables automation development of bots which are made for smarter, better and more faster blockchain app.
Conclusion
The buddy platform has already been in existence for some time now and they have developed some features of the project and wants to create a fully decentralized application automation ecosystem that enables developers to collaborate from all corners of the world and develop a scalable and high-performance application timely while automating repetitive or usual stuffs.
