AWS OpsWorks Stacks currently supports Chef versions 12, 11.10.4, 11.4.4, and 0.9.15.5. However,
Chef 0.9.15.5 is deprecated and we do not recommend that you use it for new stacks. For
convenience, they are usually referred to by just their major and minor version numbers.
Stacks running Chef 0.9 or 11.4 use Chef Solo
