So disappointed in you man. You promised that you'd run "truncate table Swamp" but instead you ran "bulk insert Swamp from C:\PeopleWhoShouldNeverBeInPower.csv"

FYI in the first chart you've got a typo; the test details say you're using a t4g.medium but the bar chart legend says it's a t4g.large.
The hard limit is 10,000 compliance items, which is also the default setting. If you are seeing failures at 10, raise a support ticket, including screenshots and error messages. docs.aws.amazon.com/systems-…

Session Manager = Interactive CLI access
EIC = SSH access via IAM Users/Roles
Interactive CLI access is one use for SSH, but there's a lot of use cases that SSM doesn't cover: SCP, rsync, remote management tools etc.

Very interesting, but you made a mistake in your math calculation for when incomes double. If $1 and $100,000 double the difference is not $198,000, it is $199,998
AWS now supports DSC, with some major improvements. No need to manage certificates or compile MOFs for each server. Store credentials in Secrets Manager, and use substitution tokens from EC2 tags or SSM Parameters to resolve values and creds at runtime aws.amazon.com/blogs/mt/run-…
get ready to pull out your wallet then, just don't be disappointed when that meeting is scheduled 2 months away...
if you've ever built a system using only native AWS services then you'd understand how easy it is to do those things.

Or use AWS Cloud formation + auto-scaling groups + scheduled updater lambda + DSC and you'll never need to patch again. Just sayin'
bler I got confused with SQL injection. Sigh. Never know what's vulnerable these days so I just assume everything is.
and if you're injecting a variable that came from user input, use '{0}' -f $par instead. Prevents script injection!
I liked it. You should have mentioned that you can run it as system and it will fire for all logged on users...

#DSC poll: if DSC resources written in PowerShell (not Python) could be run natively on Linux/Mac, what would your major use cases be?
@SwiftOnSecurity I wonder what would happen if we pointed this tool at their own IP address?
No announcement yet it seems, but nuget just got the Microsoft.PowerShell.NanoServer.NetCore.Library package. PowerShell in .Net Core apps!
