Good morning WiSSUG Community,
SQL Server 2012 is well underway now. How are you doing with your implementation planning? One of the things that will become apparent to you as you delve into SQL Server 2012 is that PowerShell is not an add-on anymore. It is an integral part of SQL Server. I heard the following comment from “The Scripting Guys Ed Wilson” in a webinar recently; if you don’t learn PowerShell you better learn to say “Do you want fries with that”. To that end we are fortunate this month to have PowerShell MVP Steven Murawski bringing us an enlightening talk concerning PowerShell and SQL Server 2012.
What new technology have you been working on lately? Anything you want to share with the group? In my spare time, I’ve been immersing myself in Red Gate’s SQL Source Control and following David Atkinson’s blogs on Continuous Integration with SQL Source Control. I’m planning on sharing with you on that subject either in a coming month’s presentation or in my blog.
I hope to see you on Tuesday.

Presentation Preview
Windows Server 2012 and PowerShell V3 - SQL Server 2012's New Platform
SQL Server 2012 will find a great home on Windows Server 2012. Windows Server 2012 provides some great platform enhancements, such as an improved networking stack, a more modular infrastructure and enhanced server management capabilities. Windows Server 2012 also provides the first platform where SQL Server 2012 can be run in "Server Core" mode, where the server UI is removed from the running OS, greatly reducing the patch surface and allowing for greater uptime. Windows Server 2012 also includes PowerShell V3, with improvements to the remoting stack, enhanced command coverage, and PowerShell Workflows for long-running and resilient task sequences.
Join Steven and see how Windows Server 2012 provides a flexible and durable platform for SQL Server deployments and operations.
Steven Murawski is the Senior Windows System Engineer for Edgenet and a Microsoft MVP in PowerShell. In this role, he supports a dynamic infrastructure that pushes the boundaries of the Windows platform. Steven also leads two local user groups, the Greater Milwaukee IT Pro User Community and the Greater Milwaukee Script Club. He speaks regularly to local user groups and can be found at various conferences.
