OPS117: PowerShell Deep Dive

IT Ops Talk

Pierre Roman, Joey Aiello (Senior Program Manager - General Compute) and Jason Helmick (Program Manager – PowerShell), will take a deep dive on PowerShell. From previous versions and making them work in PowerShell 7 and PowerShell Core. We'll also take a serious look at Learning PowerShell with PowerShell, at Predictive IntelliSense, at the VS Code extensions, Crescendo, and secret management with PowerShell to avoid the ever-annoying problem of hardcode creds or use prompts.
