hello Community,  
we are going to containerize some Software. the Vendor of the Software will use Docker container and as infrastructure Management Software Chef. thru the fact that i am new to Chef i started to read about. what i have found was following:

"Unmaintained Drivers are at risk of becoming stale. (in this list is dockers)"

[https://github.com/chef/chef-provisioning](https://github.com/chef/chef-provisioning)

the Chef should run on prod servers. can somebody plz confirm that the Driver Support is 100% stable and supported ? with docu would be nice

regards
