Progress Chef

Progress Chef, part of Progress Software Corporation, is an infrastructure automation and configuration management platform with over 15 years of DevOps expertise, combining the ease of AIOps and ClickOps with the flexibility of Policy-as-Code to automate infrastructure operations at scale. The Progress Chef 360 Platform unifies six core capabilities: Infrastructure Management for declarative configuration, Compliance Management for security and regulatory auditing, Job Orchestration for multi-node task execution, Node Management for fleet visibility, Application Delivery for cloud-native releases, and Cloud Security for workload protection. The Opsmith AIOps module converts operational intent into action using AI, bridging DevOps phases through robust integrations across cloud and on-premise environments. An IDC Total Economic Impact study validates annual benefits of 22 million dollars, including 45-percent reduced annual storage costs, 81-percent improved application release speed, 3 million dollars in direct cost savings, 62-percent reduced configuration errors, and 60-percent more efficient infrastructure staff. The platform is available as SaaS, on-premise, and via AWS and Azure marketplaces. Solutions include Patch Management for operating system updates, Zero Trust Security, Cloud-Native App Delivery, Agentless Automation, and Edge Management for distributed environments. The LearnChef training platform offers expert-led courses, hands-on labs, and certification programs. The community-developed open source edition is freely available, while enterprise editions add high availability, SSO, and premium support.
