So over time, I could see MMC going away, but personally, I don’t see that happening for at least 3-5 years.īuilding on what we’ve discussed so far, let’s take a little bit of time to cover 5 ways – in no particular order – that Windows Admin Center makes server management a breeze. However, all the new functionality will be developed for WAC and not MMC. The old tools like MMC will continue to be supported and available. With that said, one common concern that often comes up when I’m talking about WAC is what about MMC? Is MMC going to go away? As of the time of this writing, the answer is no.
It’s not the same tool, but a reimagining of it.
I like to describe it as something like server manager from Windows Server 2012-2016 on steroids. Windows Admin Center provides a modern-day UI for management of our most critical workloads. What is Windows Admin Center?įor those that aren’t aware, Windows Admin Center is the new preferred server management tool from Microsoft. This is where Windows Admin Center comes in. With the industry moving to more of a web-based management model, MMC is really starting to show its age. However, MMC is going on 20 years old now, and the toolset is much the same as it was 20 years ago. Thankfully we’ve had the Microsoft Management Console (MMC) to handle this historically. Core services run on servers and without proper management things can become messy quite quickly. For most IT professionals, managing servers is something that is done quite regularly on a day-to-day basis.
