FYI OpsWorks runs their Chef on Ruby 1.8, make sure your cookbooks passes on 1.8, and it doesn't depend on +1.9 :) This is nothing on AWS OpsWorks, as they greatly simplified interface into managing clusters (for deployments, organization). I found about this recently as I updated a community cookbook(python), as the Chef community is moving forward (with Chef 11+) that 1.8 has reach EOL and 1.9 is stable (2015) and 2.0 current, and 2.1 is new-hot-ness.
