Preface

While I was finishing another book project for Manning, a discussion developed about a PowerShell Deep Dives book. In the past Manning published two volumes of a SQL Server Deep Dives book written by a number of SQL Server MVPs and members of the SQL community. The chapters were intended as in-depth content on specific aspects of SQL Server. At the time, many of us involved in this book were also part of the developing PowerShell Deep Dives conference.

That event brought Microsoft MVPs and community members together for a few days of intense PowerShell togetherness. Think of it as a geeky Woodstock festival for PowerShell. The intent was to share PowerShell experiences and ideas on specific—or even niche—topics that would be hard to cover in a larger conference like Microsoft TechEd. The PowerShell Deep Dives conference eventually became the PowerShell Summit that we enjoy today.
