Chef Habitat is an open source automation solution for defining, packaging, and delivering applications to almost any environment regardless of operating system or platform. It uses a Studio environment to build immutable application artifacts (.HART files) and a Supervisor agent to deploy, manage, and update those applications at runtime. Chef Habitat Builder adds enterprise functionality such as package storage, search, and API-enabled services, available as SaaS or on-premises.
