Steampipe
Open SourceFundedUnified SQL interface for real-time cloud security and compliance insights
About Steampipe
Steampipe is an open source platform that enables enterprises to query cloud infrastructure, APIs, and other data sources using standard SQL without requiring complex integrations or ETL processes. Designed for cloud security, compliance, and operations teams, it provides a uniform interface across multiple cloud providers including AWS, Azure, and GCP, as well as other data sources. This allows organizations to dynamically analyze live cloud configuration data alongside internal datasets, enabling faster decision-making and improved security posture.
The platform is ideal for enterprises seeking to streamline cloud security posture management (CSPM) by leveraging familiar SQL queries to audit resources, enforce compliance, and optimize costs. Steampipe’s plugin architecture supports over 140 data sources, making it highly extensible and adaptable to diverse enterprise environments. Its zero-ETL approach ensures that data is always current, eliminating delays caused by traditional data synchronization and enabling real-time insights. Steampipe can be deployed as a CLI tool, PostgreSQL FDW, or SQLite extension, providing flexibility in how organizations integrate it into their existing infrastructure.
