Chef and Microsoft work together to provide integrated technologies that improve collaboration and speed up software development for businesses. Some key integration points include Chef support on Windows Server, Chef development tools for Windows, Visual Studio integration, and native Chef support in Azure. Microsoft and Chef have helped customers like Alaska Airlines modernize their datacenters and migrate workloads to Azure through automation with Chef. Microsoft also uses Chef internally to transform infrastructure automation, application deployment, and ensure compliance.

Traditional Data center
Modern data center
• Upgrade to Windows 2012
• Virtualize with Hyper-V
• PowerShell DSC deployment
• Automate and control all Windows and Linux servers with Chef
Migrate workloads to Azure
• Automate and control Windows and Linux in Azure cloud
instances with Chef
Target customer (current state):
• Heterogeneous mix of Windows and Linux
• Aging Windows Servers (2003/2008)
• VMware virtualization
• Interest in moving workloads to IaaS
End state:
• Automated mix of Windows and Linux
• Workloads managed in Microsoft environments
• Customers achieve speed and agility with the DevOps rollout

15. Core CHEF: Build Infrastructure
What is it?
• Describes what system will look like & then builds it
• Can be done in slices
Why is this important for customers?
• Consistent build patterns
• Versionable
• Testable
• Highly scalable
• Intelligent client allows updates across complex systems
• Keep production in sync with design pattern
• Leverage CHEF ‘Supermarket’ & Open-Source Community
benefits
So what are the benefits?
• Agility: Incredibly faster to build at much lower cost
• Speeds up bringing new features to market
• Production stability (reduces configuration drift)
• Supermarket & community work together to improve artifacts
• ‘Testable’ – we’ll look at next..

16. CHEF Compliance: Embedded Quality
A simple example of an InSpec CIS rule
Part of a process of continuous compliance
What is it?
• Configuration code testing system
Why is this important for customers?
• Can translate compliance policies into code
• Can test ‘existing’ infrastructure configurations
• Find issues early by moving ‘checking’ into pipeline not in
production.
• Test for compliance all through the system – even
production with DSC
So what are the benefits?
• Agility: Less manpower remediating production failures
• Lower cost of Audit (review tests & where DSC drifted)
• Reduces risk of regulatory penalties

17. Habitat: Automation that travels with the app
What is it?
• Package what the application needs with the
application.
• Infrastructure under runtime manage as IaaS / CHEF
Why is this important for customers?
• Taking Applications to market is faster (especially when changed
in dev pipeline)
• Significantly more cost efficient
• Designed for transforming legacy apps as well as cloud-based
ones
• Application portability
So what are the benefits?
• Agility: Faster to build & deploy applications into production
• Significantly more efficient use of IT resources
• Particularly useful for legacy applications

18. CHEF Automate: Manage Changes
What is it?
• Converging pipeline to ensure quality of infrastructure
& applications
Why is this important for customers?
• Automate for speed to pass changes into production-
ready
• Pipeline controls quality and furthermore Compliance
• Visibility through reports and search, analysis and
audit on workflow and environment behaviors.
• Versionable
• Reduction in operational failures through dependency
checks (app & Infra + infra links)
• Pipeline becomes more intelligent through iterations
So what are the benefits?
• Agility: Faster to test new & changes to code.
• Confidence in pipeline product increases
• Re-usability of pipeline intelligence
• Embedding Security & compliance checks becomes easy
