Traditional networking architectures over the past two decades or so prescribe that the hub of the network be build around a specific location, such as a data center or a company’s headquarters building.

Since this is a reference image, the system drivers being up-to-date is not essential to me because they will be stripped during the Sysprep process. I devised this one-liner that can be implemented as a command line task sequence to check for the latest application component updates only.

For many IT admins, business as usual is a juggling act. Job schedulers and scripts run on autopilot, applications and operating systems can’t speak the same language, and other tools—like RPA or MFT solutions—operate in isolation.
