“Facebook’s infrastructure is both truly unique and a model for the future of enterprise computing. Their use of Private Chef to automate and manage this large-scale infrastructure illustrates the power of Chef in solving some of the most critical and complicated IT challenges on the planet.”

“But, more importantly, Facebook’s use of Chef demonstrates Facebook’s continuing commitment to open source and sharing their own best practices to help anyone trying to manage just a few servers, or ten thousand.”

It is easy to look at this partnership from the outside and wonder why it is such a big deal. However, if you were part of the Facebook Inc (NASDAQ:FB) IT team you would realize that something like this is a huge benefit.
