managing configurations and system state automated and testable. Unlike other configuration solutions, Chef takes a policy-based approach that builds upon the principles of test-driven development and idempotency. System configuration and application change testing can be done in parallel, so system states are easily enforced and monitored across all infrastructure and teams. With Chef, users define configurations once and then can apply them across mixed fleets of Linux, Mac and Windows systems, regardless of OS version and architecture.</p></div><div class="col-3 -l-half -l-ord-1 -m-half -s-full -vam"><img src="/images/cheflibraries/illustrations/automation.svg?sfvrsn=9a51db2c_0" loading="lazy" title="Infrastructure Management Automation for Windows, Linux, Mac and more" alt="Infrastructure Management Automation for Windows, Linux, Mac and more" /></div></div><div class="row"><div class="col-9 -l-half -l-ord-2 -m-full -vam"><h2>A Single Agent for Configuration and Compliance</h2><p>Security is at the heart of everything Chef does.

class="FAQ"><details name="faq"><summary>What is infrastructure automation?</summary> <div><p class="-mb2">IT automation, or infrastructure automation, replaces manual, often error-prone IT tasks and processes with operations performed automatically. Automation is often used for processes that occur often, such as configuring end-user devices and servers or addressing common errors.</p></div></details> <details name="faq"><summary>Why is the importance of infrastructure automation?</summary> <div><p>Infrastructure automation is vital for efficient, cost-effective IT operations. It is so crucial that Gartner predicts that by 2025, 70% of enterprises will be using structured automation for its efficiency and flexibility. </p><p><strong>Here are some Infrastructure Automation Benefits:</strong></p><p>IT and DevOps pros are flocking to automation to ease infrastructure deployment. Application and end-user device deployment are two hot areas. Here are four more benefits: </p><ol><li><strong>Efficiency:</strong> Using automation instead of doing a task manually improves efficiency. </li><li><strong>Reducing errors:</strong> By automating processes that are proven to work, errors are reduced or even eliminated. </li><li><strong>Security:</strong> Misconfigurations are one of the biggest security threats. Automation performs these configurations in a way that is proven to work. </li><li><strong>Compliance:</strong> Compliance processes help keep the IT environment secure and data safe from hackers or data leakage. Once these processes have been perfected, they can be performed flawlessly through automation. </li></ol></div></details> <details name="faq"><summary>How does infrastructure automation work?</summary> <div><p>In general, the process is first performed, and then perfected as a manual operation, then turned into a workflow or automated process.</p><p>IT automation can be used for very simple processes, but steps can also be daisy-chained to perform complex tasks. A higher level of IT automation is where processes such as IT deployments are invoked and performed autonomously based on certain triggers or end-user behaviors. </p><p>Today, infrastructure automation is commonly based on code that executes processes determined by an IT expert, what those actions are and exactly how they are to be taken. </p><p class="-mb2">Complex automation processes can be created by bringing together multiple scripts or pieces of code. </p></div></details> <details name="faq"><summary>What IT infrastructure processes can be automated?</summary> <div><p>Most manual IT functions can be replaced by an automated process. Here are three common cases: </p><p><strong>Configuration:</strong> Gartner and Forrester have long argued that 80% of SaaS breaches stem from misconfiguration, inappropriate user behavior or mistakenly elevated user permissions. When enterprises correctly define, apply and maintain configurations, many of these problems disappear. </p><p><strong>Finding and solving problems:</strong> Automation can be combined with monitoring to discover issues, perform root cause analysis and then trigger an automated fix. </p><p>An IT automation tool could monitor the configuration of software, systems and other infrastructure components, discover unexpected or unauthorized changes and automatically take corrective actions. This could include restoring correct configuration settings or shifting workloads from a down server to an available one. </p><p class="-mb2"><strong>Application delivery:</strong> DevOps teams use automation to speed up application development, testing and delivery. In this case, DevOps often uses code as the functional basis of automation. </p></div></details> <details name="faq"><summary>What are some examples of infrastructure automation products? </summary> <div><p>There are several products and vendors in the IT infrastructure automation space: </p><ul><li><strong>Ansible:</strong> Open-source tool for deployment, configuration and orchestration.</li><li><strong>Chef:</strong> IT automation that uses an ‘as code’ approach to policy configuration and infrastructure.Works with various automation partners, including Ansible, Jenkins and Docker.</li><li><strong>Docker:</strong> Automation aimed at containerization. </li><li><strong>Jenkins:</strong> Aimed at application delivery and orchestration.</li><li><strong>Puppet:</strong> Uses ‘as code’ approach to automating DevOps changes and configuration. </li><li><strong>Terraform:</strong> Provides code automation.</li></ul><h4>The
