Chef and AWS CodeDeploy ----------------------- [Chef](https://www.getchef.com) is a configuration management tool that enables users to write recipes that describe how the instances in their fleet are configured. AWS provides two template samples for integrating Chef and AWS CodeDeploy. The first is a Chef cookbook that will install and start the AWS CodeDeploy host agent, giving you the ability to continue managing your host infrastructure via Chef while also being able to take advantage of the power of AWS CodeDeploy. The second sample template demonstrates how to use CodeDeploy to orchestrate running cookbooks and recipes via chef-solo on each node. [Learn more >](https://github.com/awslabs/aws-codedeploy-samples)
