"The real power of cloud computing is the flexibility to choose how much compute you need, where and when you need it, and to move your application stack to a different infrastructure at any time," said Christopher Brown, CTO, Opscode. "By delivering API integration with VMware vCloud, Terremark, Blue Box and many others, Opscode Chef gives customers the flexibility to make the most of the cloud, ensuring they can easily automate the full application stack in any compute environment."
Opscode Chef works with VMware vCloud to facilitate the creation and management of vCloud instances directly from the command-line, ensuring private cloud infrastructure is consistent and scalable. Meanwhile, Opscode Chef integrates with VMware vCloud public cloud providers Terremark and Blue Box to enable customers to easily move projects between private the public clouds, reducing infrastructure management and improving operational efficiency.
Opscode Chef provides recipes - re-usable configuration templates - for everything from rebuilding environments to deploying applications. In addition, the open source Chef community features 16,000 registered users, 760 individual contributors, 140 corporate contributors and 500 cookbooks, providing a rich ecosystem of support for VMware vCloud customers looking to make the most of their investment in the cloud.
