Opscode

Opscode was the original company behind Chef, an open-source platform that helps organizations automate the management and configuration of their computing infrastructure. Think of it like a digital set of instructions that automatically sets up and maintains servers, applications, and other IT resources consistently and efficiently. This reduces manual effort, minimizes errors, and ensures systems are configured uniformly across an organization. Opscode provided the tools, community support, and resources to facilitate this automation, allowing businesses to run their technology environments more reliably and at scale.
