Bash on Windows.

I believe there are other tools to achieve this as well. MobaXterm is one such great tool i would recommend

Some great features of MobaXterm include
Multiple Exec that can allow you to run one command over multiple servers
Running linux commands on windows
Saving sessions.....List is endless
