Integration of Opscode Chef™ with New HP Public Cloud Service Enables Businesses of All Sizes to Fully Automate and Easily Manage their HP Public Cloud Infrastructure
SEATTLE – May 10, 2012 – Opscode®, the leader in
cloud infrastructure automation, today announced its Open Source
Chef™, Hosted Chef™ and
Private Chef™ solutions provide full integration with HP
Cloud Services to deliver full stack infrastructure
automation – from server provisioning and configuration management to continuous
delivery of infrastructure and applications – for HP’s OpenStack™
technology-based public cloud. Leveraging Opscode’s knife
plugin for HP Cloud
Services, businesses of all sizes can rapidly create, bootstrap and manage HP
Cloud Compute instances.
“The scale enabled by dynamic server provisioning is best harnessed by an
automation framework that is consistent and flexible,” said Christopher Brown,
CTO, Opscode. “With HP Cloud Services and Opscode Chef, customers can now
benefit from both a public cloud with the resources and support to meet
enterprise-class needs, and next-generation configuration management to handle
the complexity of internet-scale applications.”
Opscode Chef combines with HP Cloud Services to make the deployment and
management of public cloud infrastructure consistent and scalable. Leveraging
Chef Cookbooks, HP Cloud Services enables deployment and automation of the core
components of OpenStack – including computing, object
storage, virtual machine image services, dashboard and identity – to ensure a
seamless, business-grade experience. With Chef, HP Cloud Services users can
ensure each new server is created as a cohesive portion of a fully automated
infrastructure, accelerating time-to-value and reducing costs.
