Table: ibm_cos_bucket - Query IBM Cloud Object Storage Buckets using SQL

IBM Cloud Object Storage is a highly scalable cloud storage service, designed for high durability, resiliency and security. It allows users to store, manage and access their data in a simple, cost-effective way. It is ideal for storing large amounts of data, such as images, video files, and backups.

Table Usage Guide

The ibm_cos_bucket table provides insights into the configuration and access policies of IBM Cloud Object Storage Buckets. As a data engineer, explore bucket-specific details through this table, including bucket location, storage class, and access policies. Utilize it to monitor and manage your data storage, ensuring optimal performance and security.

Examples

Basic info

Explore which IBM COS buckets are in use, their respective regions and when they were created. This can be beneficial for understanding the distribution and timeline of your storage resources.

select
  name,
  region,
  creation_date
from
  ibm_cos_bucket;

select
  name,
  region,
  creation_date
from
  ibm_cos_bucket;

List unencrypted buckets

Determine the areas in which data stored in IBM Cloud Object Storage buckets are potentially at risk due to lack of encryption. This allows for a quick assessment of security vulnerabilities and aids in prioritizing necessary protective measures.

select
  name,
  region,
  creation_date,
  sse_kp_enabled
from
  ibm_cos_bucket
where
  not sse_kp_enabled;

select
  name,
  region,
  creation_date,
  sse_kp_enabled
from
  ibm_cos_bucket
where
  not sse_kp_enabled;

List buckets with versioning disabled

Explore which IBM COS buckets have versioning disabled to gain insights into potential data loss risks. This is useful in scenarios where maintaining different versions of objects in a bucket is crucial for data recovery and backup purposes.

select
  name,
  region,
  creation_date,
  versioning_enabled
from
  ibm_cos_bucket
where
  not versioning_enabled;

select
  name,
  region,
  creation_date,
  versioning_enabled
from
  ibm_cos_bucket
where
  not versioning_enabled;

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)" -- ibm

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

steampipe_export_ibm --config '<your_config>' ibm_cos_bucket
