PowerShell can deliver great value in your quest to become a high-level DevOps wizard, whether it is with great modules such as Pester, PSScriptAnalyzer, PSDepend, and PSDeploy, or simply the awesome language features such as the strong, object-oriented shell and the flexible type system.

Built-in features such as Just Enough Administration and Desired State Configuration enable a DevOps culture. Best of all, they are free, giving freedom of choice. Use any tool to deploy DSC configurations in your CI/CD pipeline, create a build script entirely in PowerShell, and evaluate your Pester test results—the possibilities are endless.
