Description:

Have you ever been in a software project where the IT staff who would run

the system in production, was accounted for right from the start? My guess

is not very often.

It's fair to say that with all software systems come a number of

administrative tasks. However, it's far too rare to see functionality built

specifically to make the job of the IT administrator easier. That's

unfortunate, since that aspect alone has a great impact on the success of

the system as a whole.

In this session I'll walk you through how to enhance an existing .NET web

application with a set of administrative tools, using the PowerShell

programming model. Once that is in place, I'll demonstrate how common

tasks can either be performed manually using a graphical user interface or

be fully automated through PowerShell scripts.

Since the last few years, Microsoft itself has made all of its major server

products administrable both through traditional graphical tools as well as

PowerShell. If you're building a server application on the .NET platform, you

will soon be expected to do the same.
