Today from #ChefConf 2013, we made a series of exciting announcements, including collaborations with IBM (see separate blog for more info) and Microsoft, to some serious business and community growth metrics.

This morning, we announced an exciting collaboration with our friends at IBM to bring the full power of Opscode Chef to IBM’s enterprise customers. From Opscode Chef integration with IBM SmartCloud, to new cookbooks, content and more, we’re working closely with IBM to deliver on the promise of DevOps in accelerating the speed of business.

It’s a new era here at Opscode and all of us here are amped to unveil our new brand: This morning at #ChefConf 2013, our CEO Mitch Hill delivered a presentation detailing the reasoning, process, and meaning behind “Code Can.

We are happy to announce the release of Chef Server 11.0.8 containing a number of security and bug fixes as detailed below.

As we head in to our second (sold out! Woohoo!) #ChefConf, I find myself getting all misty eyed, nostalgic, and reflective.

Two days ago we let everyone know #ChefConf 2013 was nearly sold out. However, not even in our wildest imagination did we think just 48 hours later all the tickets would be gone. But that’s exactly what happened. #ChefConf is officially sold out!

#ChefConf 2013 is shaping up to be a rollicking good time, with visionary speakers, dynamite sessions, big-time sponsors, and the first look at where Opscode Chef is headed from here.

We’ve posted a number of blogs detailing the awesome speakers, dynamite sessions, cool events, and more taking place next week at #ChefConf 2013, April 25-26. Apparently, you all have been listening because #ChefConf is nearly sold out!
