It's not a bad scripting language in that case.
Quick startup, a good amount of CLI-specific APIs, available on many servers already, and no compiler or huge amount of tools needed.
It's a bit verbose for little scripts that should be in something like bash, but it's a great alternative to something like python if you are more familiar with it.
