Table: fly_machine - Query Fly.io Machines using SQL

Fly.io is a platform for running application servers close to users. It provides a global application runtime that allows deployment of applications to any city in the world. This service enables users to run their applications on a collection of virtual machines called 'Machines'.

Table Usage Guide

The fly_machine table provides insights into Machines within the Fly.io platform. As a developer or system administrator, explore machine-specific details through this table, including their status, region, and associated applications. Utilize it to uncover information about machines, such as those in a particular region, the status of machines, and the applications they are associated with.

Examples

Basic info

Explore the status and location of various machines in your fleet to understand their operational distribution and longevity. This could be useful for assessing the need for new purchases or redistributions based on regional demands and machine age.

select
  name,
  id,
  state,
  region,
  created_at
from
  fly_machine;

select
  name,
  id,
  state,
  region,
  created_at
from
  fly_machine;

List stopped machines

Discover the segments that consist of halted machines, allowing you to analyze your resources and optimize accordingly. This is useful in managing resource allocation and preventing unnecessary costs associated with idle machines.

select
  name,
  id,
  state,
  region,
  created_at
from
  fly_machine
where
  state = 'stopped';

select
  name,
  id,
  state,
  region,
  created_at
from
  fly_machine
where
  state = 'stopped';

List machines by app

Discover the segments that are associated with a specific application by analyzing the state, region, and creation date of each machine. This can be useful in managing resources and tracking the performance of different applications.

select
  name,
  id,
  state,
  region,
  created_at
from
  fly_machine
where
  app_id = 'fly-builder-icy-tree-3230';

select
  name,
  id,
  state,
  region,
  created_at
from
  fly_machine
where
  app_id = 'fly-builder-icy-tree-3230';

List unencrypted volumes attached to the machines

Discover the segments that consist of machines with unencrypted volumes attached to them. This is beneficial for identifying potential security risks in your system.

select
  m.name as machine,
  v.name as volume,
  v.encrypted
from
  fly_machine as m,
  jsonb_array_elements(config -> 'mounts') as mount
  join fly_volume as v on v.id = mount ->> 'volume'
  and not v.encrypted;

select
  m.name as machine,
  v.name as volume,
  v.encrypted
from
  fly_machine as m,
  json_each(m.config, '$.mounts') as mount
  join fly_volume as v on v.id = json_extract(mount.value, '$.volume')
  and not v.encrypted;

Schema for fly_machine

Name	Type	Operators	Description

app_id	text	=	Specifies the application.
config	jsonb		Specifies the machine configuration.
created_at	timestamp with time zone		The timestamp when the machine was created.
host_id	text		Specifies the machine host ID.
id	text	=	A unique identifier of the machine.
instance_id	text		Specifies the instance ID.
name	text		The name of the machine.
region	text		The region where the machine is created.
state	text	=	The current status of the machine.
updated_at	timestamp with time zone		The timestamp when the machine was last modified.

Export

This table is available as a standalone Exporter CLI. Steampipe exporters are stand-alone binaries that allow you to extract data using Steampipe plugins without a database.

You can download the tarball for your platform from the Releases page, but it is simplest to install them with the steampipe_export_installer.sh script:

/bin/sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://steampipe.io/install/export.sh)" -- fly

You can pass the configuration to the command with the --config argument:

steampipe_export_fly --config '<your_config>' fly_machine
