Azure role-based access control (Azure RBAC) is a system that allows us to define and manage fine-grained access to Azure resources. RBAC not only provides Azure admins a lot of control by neatly defining roles and responsibilities, but also enables admins to control access to team members/users by allowing or disabling actions they can perform on Azure Resources.

Enterprise servers are not always exposed to the internet and are often sitting behind firewalls with restrictions to prohibit any malicious activity on an internet-facing server. But to install a Docker image from the Docker Hub, you need internet access. To overcome this, you can configure a Docker client to use a proxy server if one is available, but there is another way around this, which we will discuss in the following high-level steps.

Using PowerShell type accelerators 4 years, 4 months agoPowerShell type accelerators are aliases for .NET classes or types, which makes using classes in PowerShell scripts much easier. The intention behind type accelerators is to use shorter names for .NET classes and types and save some unnecessary typing. For example, when you use the type accelerator [int] to define an integer value, there’s actually no data type called int. Instead, it’s just an alias for the [System.Int32] class.

Amazon CloudWatch is a monitoring service for Amazon Web Services (AWS) that provides robust monitoring of your entire AWS infrastructure resources and applications. It can collect data, gain insights, and alert users to fix problems within applications and resources if required. Amazon CloudWatch can also hold and represent your custom data in a graph. It is not necessarily limited to data from your AWS infrastructure and resources.

I agree you can not use New, Remove, Copy, Move-Item, because even though the information store looks like a File System it is just a model of a another system with different types/objects which has nothing to do with Files or directories. But we can write custom functions or use modules that work for the system we are modeling by importing them in the SHiPS provider module.
For example the Azure Drive in Azure cloud shell which is also a SHiPS implementation, if you navigate to ./Subscription/VirtualMachines/ you can use New-AzureRmVM command to create a New Item (Virtual Machine) under that directory and if you look closely it uses the AzureRM.Compute module which has been imported to fulfill such needs.
PS Azure:> cd ./Pay-As-You-Go/VirtualMachines/
PS Azure:> Get-AzureRmCommand | Where-Object Name -like “New-*”
CommandType Name Version Source

Prateek Singh wrote a new post, Mount an Azure drive using PowerShell 4 years, 8 months ago
Azure drive (AzurePSDrive) is a custom PowerShell provider written with the Simple Hierarchy in PowerShell (SHiPS) module, mountable with the New-PSDrive cmdlet. The SHiPS module has the capability to convert any information store or system into a hierarchy tree accessible like a file system. It converts Azure Resource Manager (AzureRM) resource items to a SHiPS-based drive for easy navigation and discovery through your cloud shell.
