Sliding Windows

One quote to rule them all: “The renaissance of the command line”

Jeffrey Snover is not only the “father” of PowerShell, he became the iconic advocat of Microsoft’s data center focussed transformation. He is the poster child of many Microsoft focussed IT pros and enthusiasts, celebrating the improvements in command line administration as an accelerator of their own businnesses and carreers. In brief, I’d personally name him “Redmonds Godfather of Automation”.

We talk about his almost 20 years journey to establish the fundamentals of a modern datacenter and automation toolchain from his early days in Redmond, the lessons learned from wmic.exe and his vision of an OS agnostic automation framework around PowerShell (Core).

This interview was recorded during the PowerShell Conference Europe 2018 in Hannover on April 19, 2018.

Das Active Directory ist die Basistechnologie in Microsoft-Netzwerken schlechthin. Eingeführt mit Windows 2000 erfuhr es über die Jahre vergleichsweise wenige Änderungen, weißt aber bis auf den heutigen Tag zahlreiche Merkwürdigkeiten auf, die vielen Anwendern/AdministratorInnen unbekannt sind.

Ich spreche mit Nils Kaczenski, der als Autor/Trainer/Consultant die Technologie von Beginn an begleitet, über weitsichtige Designkonzepte und Irrwege, über Vergangenes und Zukünftiges.

Dieses Interview wurde am 9. September 2017 in Lingen aufgezeichnet.

Every day more than 300.000 vulnerabilites are found in our modern operating systems. From iOS/MacOS, Android/Linux to Windows – reactive security approaches will obviously not save us from future attacks. I invited Sami Laiho in another ENGLISH episode of the Sliding Windows to explain how to turn the tables on this issue.

We focus on Window 10, starting from the choice of the proper edition, the importance of Bitlocker, Applocker (and Software Restriction Policies), Group Policies and the prerequisite of using limited user accounts, ending at project Barcelona (aka “Windows Defender Application Guard”) and the future architecture of enterprise grade OS.

This interview was recorded during the MCT Summit 2017 in Thessaloniki on June 11, 2017.

It’s nothing less than a complete change of mind: Microsoft publishes OSS (Open Source Software) on Github, delivers PowerShell to Linux, MacOS and Windows, creates platform agnostic tools – simply re-inventing itself.

I invited Joey Aiello and Bartek Bielawski to talk about this transformative change in another ENGLISH episode of the “Sliding Windows”. Joey (on the left hand side) is a program manager on Microsoft’s PowerShell team and OSS (Open Source Software) enthusiast. Bartek Bielawski, well known scripting guru, book author and systems engineer for Optiver already covered InterOp topics when it was neither mainstream nor fun.

We talk about the demand for technologies such as PowerShell, standards based remoting technologies, a tool chain spanning different OS and the love for OSS in general. Wrapping up, we focus on an OS agnostic IT, driven by APIs and layers of software beyond our traditional perception of computers and operating systems.

This interview was recorded during the PowerShell Conference EU on May 5, 2017 in Hannover.

In der sechsten Episode der Sliding Windows war ich zu Gast im Sendezentrum des 33. Chaos Communications Congress, 33C3, in Hamburg. Von dieser Stelle noch mal ein herzliches Dankeschön an das Team des Sendezentrums. Zu Gast in der “Live”-gestreamten Sendung waren Daniel Fett und Guido Schmitz, die beim 33C3 einen Vortrag namens “On the Security and Privacy of Modern Single Sign-On in the Web” gehalten haben, der als Ausgangspunkt für das knapp 50-minütige Gespräch diente.

Daniel und Guido arbeiten als Sicherheitsforscher an der Uni Trier (zukünftig an der Uni Stuttgart) und forschen zu den Bereichen Sicherheit und Datenschutz im Web. Wir sprechen über Single-Sign-On-Verfahren, der Evolution von LAN zu WAN-Technologien und den verwirrenden Unterschieden im Kontext von Authentifizierung, Authorisierung und Privatheit in oAuth 1.0 und 2.0, OpenID, OpenID Connect, BrowserID (aka Mozilla Persona) und dem aus Ihrer Forschung hervorgegangenen Spresso.

Das Gespräch wurde am am 29. Dezember 2016 in Hamburg aufgezeichnet.

Die fünfte Episode der Sliding Windows führte mich in den Odenwald zu Dr. Bernhard Tritsch. Benny, von Haus aus Physiker, ist seit vielen Jahren einer der Gurus des Server Based Computings, Buchautor und vielfach ausgezeichneter IT-PRO.

Benny berichtet von seinen Anfängen in den 1990er Jahren am Genfer CERN und dem Fraunhofer Institut in Darmstadt, den ersten Berührungspunkten mit “Remote Desktops” und Anwendungsvirtualisierung und den Anfangsjahren jener Technologien, mit denen er sich Zeit seines nun mehr als 20-jährigen (IT-) Berufslebens beschäftigt.
Wir sprechen über X11, Citrix Multiuser, Winframe/Metaframe, Terminal Services und enden bei aktuellen Themen wie Consumerization und Desktop Transformation

Das Gespräch hab ich am 20. Oktober 2016 in Ober-Ramstadt aufgezeichnet.

This the FIRST ENGLISH episode of the “Sliding Windows”, starring Bruce Payette. Bruce is best known as the go-to-guy of the Windows Powershell team and guru of almost any programming language (if I may quote Jeffrey Snover here).

We run through all the history of Unix oriented software in Microsoft’s ecosystem. Starting with OpenNT, later renamed to Interix, to SFU (Services for Unix) and SUA (Subsystem for Unix based applications) until we finally touch the latest chapter of the “X files”: the WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux)

In der dritten Folge der “Sliding Windows”  war André Aulich zu Gast. Wir streiften in 2 Stunden viele Themen und Aspekte, angefangen bei einem Ausflug in die Geschichte von Mac OS  und Mac OS X Server, einen Einblick über das Zusammenspiel von Linux, Windows und MacOS, über Netzwerkprotokolle und Storage bis hin zum Media Asset Management, dem gegenwärtigen Schwerpunkt von Andrés beruflicher Tätigkeit. Schlussendlich wurde des eine Zeitreise durch 20 professionaler IT und der abschließenden Erkenntnis, dass die Aufgabe von Produkten nicht immer die schlechteste Entscheidung ist.

André Aulich ist selbständiger Software-Entwickler und Inhaber der Firma moosystems. Er berät weltweit Fernsehanstalten und Filmschaffende zu Lösungen des “Media Asset Management”, der Verwaltung digitaler Mediendaten.

Wir sprachen über die PowerShell und deren Entwicklung von der ersten Version im Jahr 2006 bis zur Version 3, die 2012 mit Windows 8 und Windows Server 2012 veröffentlicht wurde. Rolf ist der Kopf der PowerShell-Anwendergruppe (PowerShell-Ag.de), langjähriger MCT (Microsoft Certified Trainer) und Co-Autor der Reihe Windows PowerShell 2.0/3.0 – kurz & gut. Rolf lebt und arbeitet in München, wo er als Senior Consultant bei Microsoft Deutschland beschäftigt ist.
