The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2015 annual report for this blog.
Here’s an excerpt:
The Louvre Museum has 8.5 million visitors per year. This blog was viewed about 86,000 times in 2015. If it were an exhibit at the Louvre Museum, it would take about 4 days for that many people to see it.
Today I had the privilege of presenting at SPS Cincinnati for the 5th time!
SPS Cincinnati holds a special place in my heart, as it was the first event I ever spoke at. My session was one of my favorites, an ECM talk based on a real-world scenario of leaving the file share mentality, and moving onto an ECM solution in SharePoint Server.
Over the last two days, I’ve had the privilege of presenting at the Dog Food Conference for the 3rd time!
My presentations were focused more on the business user, or power user in both cases. The first day, I presented a new topic that I hadn’t yet shared with the world. Day 2 was one of my favorite sessions, an ECM talk based on a real-world scenario of leaving the file share mentality, and moving onto an ECM solution in SharePoint Server.
I finally had some time to build my first SharePoint 2016 virtual environment, using the IT Preview bits w/ SQL Server 2014. Being a PowerShell guy, one of the first things I did – after running AutoSPInstaller of course – was open up PowerShell to start exploring the module snap-in. The first thing I wanted to take a look at was the number of cmdlets, because I knew there would be at least a few more than SharePoint 2013. Of course there are! There are actually 115 new cmdlets.
How did I figure that out (aside from checking out the aforementioned MSDN link)? Simple, run:
Get-Command -Module Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell | Measure-Object
Running the above returned 825. Eight hundred and twenty five commandlets! Very cool, but now I’m curious what are some of the new nouns that we administrators can run PoSh against? Taking a quick glance through the cmdlet list on MSDN, it was pretty obvious and expected to see lots of Azure, Office 365, and Project Server.
Sure, I can see an absolute need for those things. But out of curiosity, what do we have that’s not in those categories? Here are some of the commands that I am curious about, but haven’t been able to dig into yet. Also interesting is that the Help information for the cmdlets doesn’t appear to be baked into the snap-in yet:
Out of the list above, there are some interesting capabilities. I could guess as to what some of these might do, but instead – I’ll look into them some more with a plan of updating this post with some more detail. That is of course unless Microsoft (or other community contributors) releases some Help information on them.
Happy PowerShelling!
