Zack Gall from Everything EOS hosted our CTO, Alexandre Bourget, to discuss the open source roll out of dfuse. Alex walks you through the creation of dfuse, and how it evolved out of our desire to create a platform that any developer would need to simplify the integration of blockchain to their development stack, and that delivers total peace of mind even to the most demanding enterprises.
We're really excited to finally be able to share this news with everyone; dfuse goes open source! We've been working hard behind the scenes to provide a significant contribution to the blockchain ecosystem. You can find the official press release below and at https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20200319005384/en

In the blockchain space, things move very quickly and important news can sometimes be buried within all the information. We put together this recap of 2019's last quarter to ensure that you didn't miss out on any of the exciting things we have been up to at dfuse.
The culture here at dfuse is one of innovation, iteration, and collaboration. It is for this reason that we have built our newest API, one to be used by any developer looking to apply to work at dfuse.
Recently, an airdrop on the EOS mainnet has caused transaction rates on the network to skyrocket, reaching as much as 30x of the previous baseline. Many of the infrastructure services that EOS dapps depend on have struggled to keep up with this increase, or have completely crashed and remained down. dfuse has also felt the impact of this onslaught of traffic, but we’ve remained up and running, and are processing transactions as fast as the network can throw them at us -- up to an incredible 500 token transfers per second in recent days.
In this post we’ll cover what happened, and the challenges the dfuse team faced with storage, query planning and indexing, and abuse management as EOS traffic surged.
