This week we’re pleased to release a new video series, Intro to AWS OpsWorks for Chef Automate.

Here’s this month’s round up of what happened in September across the Chef, Habitat, and InSpec open-source communities. Chef This month’s release of Chef 14 is Chef 14.5.33, which includes two new resources: windows_workgroup, which allows you to modify the system’s Windows workgroup, and locale, which sets the system locale.

At ChefConf 2018 in May, we announced the availability of InSpec in Azure Cloud Shell, allowing users to run InSpec scans anywhere they can connect from their Azure subscription. All without ever needing to install software on their local machine.

InSpec by Chef is a powerful “compliance as code” tool powered by an ever growing number of compliance profiles and target resources. It enables users to achieve continuous compliance across their IT environments.

We have some exciting news! Chef is introducing a series of short videos for Habitat on YouTube: Getting Started with Habitat. This playlist focuses on Habitat – including getting started, core concepts, and practical tips.

We are very pleased to announce the results from Chef’s 2018 State of Applications Survey. Earlier this year, we partnered with Dimensional Research to survey 347 applications and IT operations professionals worldwide on the topic of application build and release processes.

Today is 10 years from the day that Chef became a company (at the time, as OpsCode). What started as a consulting company with many of my best friends (Nathan Haneysmith, Barry Steinglass, and Joshua Timberman, our first employee), eventually became the Chef we all know and love.

Today I’m excited to announce that we’ve released our first app in the ServiceNow store: Chef Automate Incident Creation.

Today we are excited to support the launch of Azure DevOps (formerly Visual Studio Team Services and Team Foundation Server).
