When the Build Chain Becomes the Battlefield: What Gartner's 2026 ThreatScape Means for Infrastructure Automation
Gartner's 2026 ThreatScape identifies software supply chain attacks as a top enterprise security threat. Learn why build-chain assurance matters for infrastructure automation and how organizations can evaluate the security, accountability and trustworthiness of the software managing their environments.
Read moreWhy the Future of Automation Is Platform-Governed, Not Tool-Centric
Most enterprises have succeeded with automation, but often in disconnected silos using tools such as Chef, Ansible, Puppet, Terraform and custom scripts. This creates "automation islands" where teams lack visibility into each other's changes, making audits, troubleshooting and governance difficult. Rather than attempting costly rip-and-replace standardisation efforts, organisations should implement a shared execution layer that governs how automation is executed across tools. This approach improves visibility, auditability, execution control and operational consistency while allowing teams to continue using their existing automation investments.

A practical guide to upgrading from CINC to Chef 360, covering migration phases, key considerations and how to transition to a cloud-native, policy-driven automation platform while minimizing risk and maximizing the long-term value.
Read moreOperating Infrastructure at Scale - Beyond Jobs and Workflows
Organizations are shifting from isolated servers to shared, dynamic infrastructure platforms, increasing the need for continuous visibility and control at scale. While automation jobs and workflows help execute changes, they fall short in maintaining a trusted, real-time understanding of system state. Over time, drift, loss of context and fragmented processes increase operational risk and cost. The key challenge is not executing change, but ensuring systems remain aligned with intended state under constant change. A modern operating model must link execution with ongoing validation, enabling teams to detect drift early, maintain compliance and act with confidence. Chef 360 addresses this gap by combining automation with operational context, giving teams a continuous, reliable view of infrastructure posture across environments. This shifts operations from tracking past actions to maintaining real-time operational confidence.
