The fact that I have to manage and maintain only a few machines is probably why. +I also find Ansible easier to reason about than Chef or Puppet.

Being able to start a local VM and get a clean environment quickly is invaluable to me. It makes it easy to test an application or library in different situation, without carrying about local dependencies and conflicts created by having multiple versions of the same library installed on the system. But sometimes a local VM is not enough, and you need a more powerful server, so now you need an EC2 instance. |
