📝 Synopsis:
Ever wonder how to wrangle AWS resources from the comfort of your PowerShell console? Join us as we explore AWS Tools for PowerShell and see how they can make your cloud management tasks easier, faster, and far more repeatable.
📘 Description:
In this hands-on session, we’ll start from the ground up by setting up the AWS CLI, installing the necessary modules, and walking through the different ways to authenticate securely. From there, we’ll show you how to seamlessly move between accounts and efficiently search for the resources you need without the usual friction.
Once the foundation is in place, we’ll dive into real-world scenarios. You’ll see practical examples of spinning up EC2 instances, managing S3 buckets, creating IAM users, invoking Lambda functions, and querying CloudWatch logs—all from PowerShell scripts you can take home and use immediately.
We’ll keep things practical and engaging with live demos that highlight both quick wins and the inevitable “gotchas.” Whether you’re just getting started with AWS automation or looking to level up your scripting game, you’ll walk away with working code examples, best practices, and tips for troubleshooting when things don’t go quite as planned.
