Ignite 2018 – Windows Admin Center Sessions

Ignite 2018 is just over two weeks away (aka a fortnight for some of us), and I thought I promote a few more sessions that are either Windows Admin Center focused, as well as some that should feature it even if it's not explicitly mentioned in the session description. Windows Admin Center will become an important part of the Windows Server admin's toolkit, and you can download it now if you want to try it with your existing Windows Server environment.

Windows Admin Center is designed for managing a single server or cluster. It complements but does not replace existing Microsoft monitoring and management solutions, such as Remote Server Administration Tools (RSAT), System Center, Intune, or Azure Stack. Last week it was announced that Windows Server 2019 Essentials will be losing the Essentials functionality, with Windows Admin Center replacing some of it's capabilities, so it's worth checking out what is and isn't going to available if you work with SMB customers.
