DESCRIPTION

IT automation is evolving rapidly, and the infrastructure professionals who can direct AI with precision are the ones managing hybrid cloud environments at scale. This book, Prompting PowerShell for IT Automation, shows you how to translate natural-language intent directly into production-ready PowerShell using AI, accelerating every stage of automation from basic scripting to self-healing infrastructure orchestration.

This book puts AI-assisted execution at the centre. You use prompt engineering techniques to generate PowerShell scripts, refactor legacy code, build secure CI/CD pipelines, and automate compliance and security workflows using GitHub Copilot, AI Shell, and Microsoft Copilot. Then deploy all these across hybrid and multi-cloud environments with confidence.

By the end of the book, you will use AI prompts as a core part of your PowerShell workflow, managing entire infrastructure lifecycles across DevOps, SecOps, and FinOps with greater speed and precision than traditional scripting allows.

WHAT WILL YOU LEARN

Across Every Book in the Prompting Series, Readers will Learn How to:

? Learn complex technologies by expressing intent, not memorising syntax

? Use AI prompts to generate, explain, and refine technical solutions

? Break intimidating tools into conversational learning steps

? Move from beginner understanding to production-ready output

? Build confidence to explore any new technology independently

WHO IS THIS BOOK FOR?

This book is tailored for System Administrators, Cloud Engineers, DevOps Practitioners, and Security and FinOps Architects who want to automate hybrid and multi-cloud environments using AI-assisted PowerShell. Familiarity with basic scripting concepts and cloud platforms is assumed, but no prior experience with AI development tools is required.
