Remoting Scenarios

1:Many (fan-out): Large Scale AutomationSend the script to remote machines

Select properties allows client to specify which properties to return

Throttling limits the number of concurrent operations

Job support runs commands in the background on client

1:1 (interactive): Secure Telnet ReplacementCmdline equivalent of Remote Desktop

Interact with a remote machine as if it were local

No Invoke-Command required

Ideal for troubleshooting a remote machine

Many:1 (fan-in): Delegated Administration & HostingHosting model for web services

No tools installation required on client

Constrained session environment (cmdlets, parameters, language)
