Chef Local Development Workflow with ChefDK, Vagrant, VirtualBox, and Test Kitchen

• Workstation - A workstation is a computer that is configured to run various Chef command-line tools that synchronize with a chef-repo, author cookbooks, interact with the Chef server, interact with nodes, or applications like Chef Delivery
• Node - A node is any machine—physical, virtual, cloud, network device, etc.—that is under management by Chef.
• Chef Server- The Chef server acts as a hub for configuration data. The Chef server stores cookbooks, the policies that are applied to nodes, and metadata that describes each registered
