Why Learning and Managing Windows Powershell Is Important?

The question is very obvious for all the IT pros using the Windows platform. This is a powerful scripting tool that can greatly accelerate your admin tasks. You should learn the skills of using that tool. If you haven’t had a chance to learn how to use it, you might want to make time for it now. Here are some reasons why the effort will pay off. Microsoft describes PowerShell as “A task-based command-line shell and scripting language built on the .NET Framework.” This does not require any prior programming knowledge as it comes with a very powerful feature ‘Pipeline’ which allows you to perform complex tasks on the output results within the command-line itself. PowerShell is object based. Managing Windows PowerShell has now become the present and future of Microsoft platform and it is not going away anytime in near future. It is an important technology recommended by Microsoft.

Aren’t you excited about learning this technology? Try uCertify’s Windows PowerShell in 24 Hours course and performance-based labs.
