Chef is a strategic DevOps partner with the new Oracle Cloud, offering Chef integrations with Oracle Cloud:
- knife-oraclecloud is a plugin for Chef’s knife command-line tool that is used to manage your Chef resources. The new knife-oraclecloud plugin allows you to create and bootstrap new instances on Oracle Cloud, list the available shapes (i.e. sizes) and images available for your instances, and delete them when they are no longer needed. The functionality is identical other cloud-based knife plugins making it easier for you to embrace a multiple-cloud deployment.
- kitchen-oraclecloud is a plugin for Chef’s Test Kitchen awesome integration testing framework. While Test Kitchen uses Vagrant on your workstation by default, there’s no substitute for testing your cookbooks on the actual infrastructure on which you will eventually deploy. kitchen-oraclecloud allows you to spin up instances in Oracle Cloud specifically to test your cookbooks.
