Configuration Management Tailored to Financial Institutions
Despite advances in agile methodologies, many financial organizations still depend on traditional, manual IT processes that often cause misconfigurations and delays.

Chef has helped financial services define infrastructure as code, making configuration policies flexible, versionable, testable, and human-readable. IT resources managed by Chef are continuously checked against a desired state, automatically correcting any configuration drift and applying changes efficiently as needed.
