[chef] Re: chef with aws

Nikhil, 

I recommend using AWS  OpsWorks instead of CloudFormation. Besides Opsworks supports Chef recipes for deployment. So basically you provision AWS components and then use Chef recipes to do whatever you want on the ec2.

Hey Folks,

I was wondering which approach to take (chef,opscode,cloud formation, or a variation). I am trying to build a stack utilizing RDS, VPC/EC2/, FW, and possibly setting up raids on the volume. I was wondering if this is something I can utilize chef with or would it be more beneficial to use something like opscode or cloud formations since it all resides in the Amazon infrastructure. With that said, does chef even support RDS implementations? 

Thanks in advance.
