如果我使用Heroku，我会使用Chef吗？

Question

I use Heroku to deploy my Rails apps.

But I thought about learning Chef to automatically set up the development infrastructure, but Im not sure.

So to put it very simple, are there any reasons for me to learn Chef?

Answer 1

If you are using Heroku, no, there's no need. You are later probably going to be deploying to your own servers, so look into that; in that case, Chef might be a good option, also look at Capistrano.

Answer 2

I'm not sure how chef and heroku are related. If you're using heroku then you don't need to use chef whether it's worth learning or not is independent of your use of heroku
