Session details:

1. Jess Pomfret - Managing replication with dbatools

Folks - the wait is over! - REPLICATION commands are in dbatools.

One of the most highly requested dbatools features is for commands to manage replication and now they're here.

In this session, we'll run through the available commands and work through demos including:

- Enabling publication and distribution for our instance

- Creating publications

- Adding articles to publications

- Adding subscriptions

- Confirm it's all working

- Tearing it all back down again!

If you have been managing replication through the GUI and dreaming of a better way - come and join me for this action-packed session.
