In this podcast, Cláudio shares his journey as a DBA and the massive role of PowerShell in that journey. He shares advice for DBAs who are just getting started with PowerShell and automation as well as some of the easiest ways to start taking advantage of dbatools. We learned about different methods for learning and how the book Learn dbatools in a Month of Lunches can be a great fit for those trying to get started with dbatools.

Andrew Pla
PowerShell MVP, podcast host, and Community Director of PowerShell Summit
I’m a technical educator and community builder. I’m a Microsoft PowerShell MVP, podcast host, speaker, and Community Director of PowerShell Summit. I also work at PDQ alongside sysadmins and IT pros every day.
Community isn’t just what I do. It’s where I get my energy. I genuinely light up when I see someone land a new job, level up a skill, or show up to their first conference. I love sharing that passion with others.
Every week I host a live podcast and stream on YouTube covering PowerShell, automation, and the humans behind the keyboards.
If you’re on your IT journey and need someone in your corner, you’re in the right place. Find more at andrewpla.tech/links.
