`Chef <https://www.chef.io/chef/>`_ is a systems and cloud infrastructure automation
241+
framework that makes it easy to deploy servers and applications to any physical,
242+
virtual, or cloud location. Chef works by using custom recipes which can simply be defined
243+
as configuration elements which implement your polices.
244+
These custom recipes are usually stored in your Chef server.

246+
Chef clients run on every server that is part of your infrastructure and these regularly
247+
check with your Chef server to ensure your system is always aligned and represents the
248+
desired state. Since each individual server has its own distinct Chef client, each server
249+
configures itself and this distributed approach makes Chef a scalable automation platform.
