Opscode Wins Cheezburger

Seattle-based cloud automation software developer Opscode reports this morning that it has a new customer: fellow Seattle company Cheezburger. Opscode said that Cheezburger is now using its Hosted Chef platform, for automatic configuration management and provisioning of its sites across multiple, cloud service providers. Financial impact of the win was not disclosed. Opscode develops an infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) product which makes it easier for application developers to deploy their products across multiple, different cloud providers. Cheezburger operates a series of humorous websites based on Internet memes and themes, including I Can Has Cheezburger, FAIL Blog, Know Your Meme, and Memebase.
