DevOps is all about automation, responsiveness, and reducing manual overhead — and PowerShell’s native eventing capabilities are a hidden gem in that toolbox.

In this session, we’ll explore how to build event-driven automation workflows using Event Subscriptions with WMI and CIM. Instead of polling for changes or relying on scheduled tasks, you’ll learn how to create PowerShell scripts that react instantly to system events like new user creation, service state changes, or process launches.

We’ll demonstrate how this approach supports key DevOps principles:

Automation: Trigger scripts and workflows automatically based on real-time system changes.
Observability: Gain visibility into infrastructure events without external agents.
Efficiency: Reduce resource usage and latency by eliminating polling.
Security & Compliance: Monitor for unauthorized changes and respond immediately.

Live demos will show how to subscribe to events, trigger downstream automation (like webhooks or logging), and integrate with broader DevOps workflows. Whether you're managing infrastructure or building responsive automation, this session will help you modernize your PowerShell toolkit with real-time capabilities.
