AWS OpsWorks for Configuration Management now supports the new version of Chef Automate for its managed service. Customers benefit from receiving the update automatically during the weekly system maintenance window scheduled individually by each customer.

Chef Automate now runs with Chef Automate version 20220103112354 and Chef Infra Server version 14.11.36. With these versions, customers benefit from many improvements, bugfixes and increased security such as protection from the log4j vulnerability. You can visit Chef Automate’s release notes for a complete overview of the changes and backwards incompatibilities such as changes to creation of teams and permissions.
