AWS Insights Mod

Create dashboards and reports for your AWS resources using Steampipe.

Overview

Dashboards can help answer questions like:

  • How many resources do I have?
  • How old are my resources?
  • Are there any publicly accessible resources?
  • Is encryption enabled and what keys are used for encryption?
  • Is versioning enabled?
  • What are the relationships between closely connected resources like IAM users, groups, and policies?

Dashboards are available for 15+ services, including CloudTrail, EC2, IAM, RDS, S3, VPC, and more!

References

AWS provides on-demand cloud computing platforms and APIs to authenticated customers on a metered pay-as-you-go basis.

Steampipe is an open source CLI to instantly query cloud APIs using SQL.

Steampipe Mods are collections of named queries, codified controls that can be used to test current configuration of your cloud resources against a desired configuration, and dashboards that organize and display key pieces of information.

Getting started

Installation

Download and install Steampipe (https://steampipe.io/downloads). Or use Brew:

brew tap turbot/tap
brew install steampipe

Install the AWS plugin with Steampipe:

steampipe plugin install aws

Clone:

git clone https://github.com/turbot/steampipe-mod-aws-insights.git

Usage

Before running any dashboards, it's recommended to generate your AWS credential report:

aws iam generate-credential-report

Start your dashboard server to get started:

steampipe dashboard

By default, the dashboard interface will then be launched in a new browser window at http://localhost:9194. From here, you can view dashboards and reports.

Configuration

No extra configuration is required.
