If you’re in Kolkata and want to stand out in the DevOps job market, the Chef Training in Kolkata by DevOpsSchool is one of the most practical, career-focused programs available today. Salt Lake Sector V, New Town Rajarhat, and the growing IT hubs around Kolkata are seeing a steady demand for automation experts — and Chef (Progress Chef) remains a trusted choice for banks, fintech, and large enterprises like TCS, Cognizant, PwC, and Bandhan Bank.
I’ve personally connected with many Kolkata engineers who took this course, and they all say the same thing: “This is the training that finally made me confident with Infrastructure as Code.”
Here’s an honest, no-nonsense guide to everything you need to know.
Why Chef is Still Highly Relevant in Kolkata (2025 Update)
Chef’s maturity, strong compliance features, and pull-based model make it perfect for regulated industries. Companies with Kolkata delivery centers — Standard Chartered, HSBC, Genpact, and Capgemini — still manage thousands of servers with Chef cookbooks.
Adding Chef to your resume instantly boosts your profile for DevOps, SRE, and Cloud Engineer roles (average fresher package 5–8 LPA, experienced 12–20 LPA in Kolkata GCCs).
