Frequently asked questions about Buddy

What is Buddy and what is it used for? +

Buddy is a CI/CD platform operated by BDY PSA, based in Warsaw, Poland, and founded in 2015. Development teams use it to automate builds, tests and deployments without writing pipeline configuration by hand. A visual editor provides over 150 pre-built actions, for example for Docker, Kubernetes or cloud deployments. Buddy is offered as a cloud service and as a self-hosted product.

Does Buddy run on European infrastructure? +

Buddy runs on Amazon Web Services. For European users, the data center in Stockholm (Sweden) is the default, and there is also a US data center in Ohio. Because AWS is a US provider, this is EU data residency, not an exemption from the US CLOUD Act. Teams that need full control over their data can run the self-hosted edition in their own data center.

How does Buddy differ from GitHub Actions? +

Buddy uses a visual pipeline editor with pre-built actions instead of hand-written YAML files. The operator is a Polish company subject to European law, whereas GitHub belongs to Microsoft in the United States. Buddy offers a selectable EU region and a self-hosted edition. A free plan with one seat allows getting started at no cost.
