CloudQuery Platform is currently in early beta. We welcome early feedback!

For documentation on CloudQuery CLI, SDK, or how to create new integrations, see .

Key Features

Easy Cloud Connection Setup

With CloudQuery Platform, syncs from AWS, GPC, Azure and dozens of other cloud and SaaS products can be set up and scheduled from within the UI.

Asset Inventory

The Asset Inventory allows you to explore your cloud assets. It features a fast attribute-based search with a simple query language.

The asset inventory also supports saved searches, an easy way to keep tabs on your most common questions and environments.

SQL Console

In the SQL console, you can interact with the raw data from your cloud. Here you can also save your queries and run them later.

REST API

All Platform features can be accessed via a RESTful API. This includes the data! Enable your team, and other teams, to query and alert on cloud data with a single unified interface. See the API reference for details.

Sync to Your Own Data Warehouse

While CloudQuery Platform's UI and API require a ClickHouse database, you are not tied to it. You can also export your data to any of the many destinations supported by CloudQuery: PostgreSQL, MongoDB, BigQuery, S3, Snowflake, and many others.

Architecture Overview

A CloudQuery Platform installation consists of a few key high-level components:

The main components are the following:

  • The CloudQuery API component serves both the API and frontend resources, and adds a normalized data layer on top of the raw data via post-load transformations.

  • Cloud asset data and views are stored in a ClickHouse database.

  • Application data and state are stored in a Postgres database.

  • CloudQuery integrations, such as those for AWS, GCP and Azure, fetch data from your cloud environments and load it into ClickHouse.
