Infinite Skills' “Learning Windows PowerShell” Teaches Fundamentals of Automation and Configuration Management Framework
(PRWEB) October 29, 2014 -- Software training firm Infinite Skills Inc. this week introduced its "Learning Windows PowerShell Tutorial," an introductory course designed for network administrators interested in learning the basics of this powerful framework for administering and automating a Windows network.
Windows PowerShell consists of a command-line shell and a scripting language, both built on the .NET framework, enabling administrators to perform tasks on both local and remote systems. Its importance in Windows administration is on the rise as the framework's features become more powerful and dynamic.
Infinite Skills' "Learning Windows PowerShell" starts with basic setup and configuration and introduces the fundamentals of major components, including commands, scripts, working with providers, files and folders, and administrative processes.

The course closes with a look at administrative processes and a chapter covering the major features of PowerShell 5.
"Make no mistake," Long says, "PowerShell is the future of administration in the Windows Operating System. There is a lot to PowerShell, but you have to learn how to get around."
