OpsCode - Chef

---

We use Chef every single day. It is a fundamental tool in everything we do from scripting new environments to maintaining upgrades and patches.

Chef turns infrastructure into code. With Chef, you can automate how you build, deploy, and manage your infrastructure. Your infrastructure becomes as versionable, testable, and repeatable as application code.

base2Services uses the power of Chef to manage client's application servers. Chef provides us with a uniform way of monitoring and configuring servers. We create almost a master plan for a server cluster. This determines the moving parts in the infrastructure behind powerful apps.

Chef is our go-to cloud configuration management tool. A single, simple package that contains the application logic handles data processes. It can determine things from operating system type and whether other configurations are correct. Chef handles the hard work replacing hundreds of lines of code with just one. The result is less deployment time, consistency and lower costs for our clients.
