Progress Chef 360 Platform and Progress Chef Courier 1.4 release notes
Chef 360 Platform 1.4.0
Release date: July 17, 2025
New features
The Chef Declarative State Management (DSM) service is now included in Chef 360 Platform.
Chef DSM acts as a central repository for configuration data. It manages cookbooks, policies, and metadata for nodes managed by Chef Infra Client. DSM enables nodes to efficiently request and receive configuration details, ensuring streamlined deployment and management processes. For more information, see the Chef DSM documentation.
Node enrollment can now be performed using a binary executable directly from the nodes.
All tables can now be exported as CSV files using the Chef 360 Platform UI.
Improvements
- Courier now supports a larger number of parallel jobs.
Preview features
