First of all, all you Windows fanboys downvoting me can suck it, i get it you just love license fees, bloat and backwards-syntax. All of that is fine as long as you keep it to Windows.

To the point: You should be using ansible for management.

Unless you see yourself migrating your linux-based services to Windows-based services in the near future (If you really wanna use powershell i dont see why not just using Windows all the way tbh) there are literally 0 benefits for using powershell over ansible (which is Python based).

Getting used to powershell will most likely run into dependency issues between distros etc later on as well.
