PowerShell + DevOps Global Summit 2026

The MCPServerPS module introduces a new way to combine PowerShell with AI-driven workflows by exposing scripts and functions as MCP tools. This session demonstrates how MCPServerPS turns existing PowerShell logic (.ps1 files or script module functions) into discoverable, schema-backed tools that AI clients can call directly. The result is a more productive and repeatable pattern for blending AI assistance with real automation code, without rewriting or restructuring your scripts.
 
We will walk through the module’s architecture, show how to register and expose tools, review schema generation and invocation flows, and highlight scenarios where MCP improves automation reliability and developer efficiency. If you're interested in using PowerShell as the execution backbone behind AI-enabled workflows, or if you want to understand how MCP tooling can extend your automation capabilities, this session will give you a practical, code-focused introduction to what’s possible today.

Discover how IT and operations teams can harness AI to create custom tools that fit their unique needs. In this session, we’ll show practical ways to integrate AI into workflows, automate tasks, and build adaptive solutions. .. No data science required.  Walk away with actionable insights to transform IT operations today.

Large Language Models (LLMs) offer unprecedented power, but their integration into critical IT operations often requires precise, controlled execution of commands. This session addresses that challenge by demonstrating how to use MCP (Model Context Protocol) to run PowerShell, transforming LLM outputs into reliable, actionable commands. We'll move beyond simple scripting to build a robust framework together that empowers LLMs to execute specific PowerShell commands.Attendees will embark on an interactive journey to create an MCP service from scratch using PowerShell, seeing first hand how MCP works under the hood. We will explore the protocol and how it links LLM decisions to PowerShell's capabilities, enabling dynamic, AI-driven automation without allowing arbitrary PowerShell execution. We will build a real world solution together that you can use in your environments.

Infrastructure as Code is entering a new era—one where AI doesn't just suggest snippets, but actively participates in the authoring, validation, and deployment of cloud infrastructure. In this session, we'll showcase how the Azure Terraform experience is being supercharged with AI capabilities. See how GitHub Copilot integration accelerates Terraform authoring directly in VS Code, explore real-world scenarios powered by our MCP Server, and get an early look at the full-screen Azure Copilot editor experience. We'll also preview what's coming next including new tools and discuss how community contributions will shape the road ahead. Whether you're an IaC veteran or just getting started, you'll leave with a clear picture of how AI is transforming the Terraform-on-Azure developer experience.

The role of the IT professional continues to evolve. Join our speakers for an open and honest discussion on the essential skills and mindsets that employers now expect. How do you optimize day-to-day administration and advise on strategic cloud architecture? Learn how to embrace AI tooling to accelerate your career.

Transform Visual Studio Code into your ultimate PowerShell development environment through context-aware GitHub Copilot customization. In this hands-on workshop you’ll learn to write custom instruction files and specialized prompt templates that understand PowerShell syntax, cmdlets, and common scripting patterns - no prior AI experience required. We’ll cover custom chat modes and Model Context Protocol (MCP) integration so your assistant can access and reuse project context for automation tasks. Through guided exercises you’ll implement context-aware suggestions that match your coding style, from basic script generation to complex module development and debugging scenarios. By workshop's end, you'll have a fully personalized AI coding assistant that makes PowerShell development more efficient and enjoyable for users at any skill level.
