5 ChatGPT prompts every cloud engineer should have saved
These are the 5 prompts I use most often. Copy them, save them, adjust them to your cloud of choice.
Prompt 1 — Generate Terraform from scratch
"I need Terraform code to deploy [describe your infrastructure]. Use best practices: variables.tf, outputs.tf, main.tf structure. Add comments explaining each block."
Prompt 2 — Debug a cloud CLI error
"I ran this command: [paste your command]. I got this error: [paste the error]. I'm using [AWS CLI / Azure CLI / gcloud]. What's wrong and how do I fix it? Give me the corrected command."
Prompt 3 — Explain any cloud concept simply
"Explain [concept, e.g. 'AWS IAM roles vs IAM users'] like I'm a sysadmin who knows on-prem but is new to cloud. Use an analogy. Then give me a real example of when I'd use each one."
Prompt 4 — Write a PowerShell / Bash automation script
"Write a [PowerShell / Bash] script that [describe what you want it to do]. Add error handling and comments."
Prompt 5 — Review my config for security issues
"Here is my [Terraform / ARM template / Kubernetes YAML / cloud config]: [paste your code]. Review it for security issues, misconfigurations, and cost inefficiencies. List each issue and how to fix it."
Save these. Adjust the brackets to your situation.
Which one do you use first? Drop it in the comments.
