:: This script will migrate all of the IIS Applications and Configuration from the local server to the destination server.
:: This script needs to be ran from the source server that has the IIS configuration that you want to migrate.
:: MsDeploy will often generate a lot of output, so it's best to remote desktop onto the server that you want to migrate,
:: rather than running this command via PowerShell Remoting, as it will take a very long time to pipe the output back to
:: your local machine.

:: The server you are syncing to must also have Web Deploy installed on it. You can download it from:
::	http://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/download/details.aspx?id=43717
:: Be sure to do the "Complete" installation, not just the "Typical" so that the Web Deployment Agent Service gets installed.

Things to include in every application / service

Some things that every application or service you build should have:

• Logging (preferably centralized)
• Metrics (to know how the app is performing (slow endpoints, etc.))
• Alerts (to be notified when things aren't working properly)
• Telemetry (to know which parts of the app / service are used most, or not at all and can be removed)
• User Feedback Mechanism (so users can easily report issues or request new features)
• Feature Flags (to enable rolling features / changes out in a controlled manner)

# This file should only include settings that affect the physical contents of the file, not just how it appears in an editor.
# Do not include personal preference presentation settings like a tab's `indent_size` in this file; those should be specified

# v1.7 - Source: https://gist.github.com/deadlydog/bd000162e85c155b243a712c16f7411c
