Automation–System Center Orchestrator Engineering Blog–May 2014 Cross-Post Update!

Hello Readers!

It is that time again; time for me to cross-reference the great work being published over on the System Center Orchestrator Engineering Blog!

And let’s be honest, this blog is so much more than Orchestrator now…it is really the System Center AUTOMATION Engineering Blog!

To that end, this month I have four fantastic blog posts for you…

Three (3) for SMA, and One (1) for Azure Automation (links below):
