What is the difference between Chef and Jenkins?

The question is about Chef

Answer:

Chef and Jenkins are both integral to DevOps but serve distinct roles. Chef can be termed as a configuration management tool that automates server setup and maintenance, while Jenkins is a Continuous Integration/CContinuous Delivery tool used to automate software build, test, and deployment processes. In the DevOps pipeline, Jenkins might trigger Chef to deploy and configure infrastructure for the delivery process. While Chef manages the state of the servers, Jenkins manages the lifecycle of an application. Both work harmoniously together to automate infrastructure and deployment.
