I use it daily to make my job easier on me and to make me more productive. Now that I can be more productive, it will be easier for me to find the time to do more new and perhaps things that make the company more profitable. I also think, that a Master like you, would be able to pick it up in a short time frame. Well anyway good post, Like always, and I think you have inspired me, after our twitter Powershell Debate, to present at SQL Saturday 47 about why a Production DBA should learn Powershell. So thanks for the inspiration. Brent, I am late reading this one and it is near and dear to my heart as I love Powershell and I think it is a very valuable tool.

Yes, I like to use PowerShell a great deal to help me do my work. I think that's one part of the post. The other part of the day is helping others do their work, and data mining can certainly do that. So like any good politician, I'll agree with your overall concept while defending my own. Actually, Steven isn't far off the mark - I use PowerShell to do my work more quickly, and then I can devote even more time to adding business value like data mining. I still love you, though. Even when we fight. :) Ha! Yes, I like to use PowerShell a great deal to help me do my work. I think that’s one part of the post.

Hope to hear more from you on this topic! I like these data mining related posts since this area interests me a lot, but my day job doesn’t require me to do this kind of stuff… yet!
