PowerShell 4.0 A First Look

Posted on September 12, 2013

021913_2047_WordTest1.pngMy first look at PowerShell 4.0 is now online at 4Sysops.com. A few interesting bits but with 3.0 still gaining traction I'm wondering how much people will actually adopt 4.0. It seems to me that some of the biggest features like Desired State Configuration will require Windows Server 2012 on the back end and it might be a while before that is widespread.

    Jeff, why do you say that DSC requires Server 2012 on the back end? Server 2008 R2 will support DSC (and can act as the pull server).

      Because I clearly don’t know what I’m talking about! 🙂 Thanks for the clarification.
