    IT being a cost center is a rough position to be in tbh, I get it. For me, even when I can convince them that moving to upgrading to more modern scalable systems will be an investment that should see an increase in uptime and a decrease in the number of admins needed, it is still a fight to get them to actually INVEST in it and not just unfunded mandate a change in systems.

    I don’t even want to think about what hundreds of Windows servers administration looks like. Like SCCM and Group Policy is more powerful than Linux admins give it credit for, but still at that scale what a nightmare. I hated it on the scale of tens of servers.
