Windows Server 2008 Launch in Seattle



I had the opportunity to speak at the Windows Server 2008 launch today here in Seattle. Ted Kummert who is the Corporate Vice-President for the data and storage group was the executive speaker for the keynote. I was asked to speak about the products that Quest Software has that support Windows Server 2008, SQL Server 2008 and about our partnership with Microsoft.

It all went off without a hitch but guess which technology I spoke most highly of...

Active Directory?? Nope.

Identity Management?? Nope.

SQL Server?? Nope.

POWERSHELL!!!

I really do believe that PowerShell is revolutionary compared to everything else that's "new" in Windows Server 2008. If you haven't checked out our free PowerShell GUI and cmdlets then now is the time: http://www.powergui.org/

Hi Jack..

Even i also had the opportunity to get along with the launch but not with you. Though i came along one here in New Delhi.. And was quite impressed with the way they had the promotional idea.. And the best part that emerged on the whole concept was their Theme "HEROS HAPPEN HERE"..

Can you please help me with the details of Virtualisation as that was one of the notch concern there among all the speaker who provided there note....
