WHOIS + Steampipe
Steampipe is an open source CLI to instantly query cloud APIs using SQL.
WHOIS is a widely used Internet record listing that identifies who owns a domain and how to get in contact with them. The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) regulates domain name registration and ownership.
For example:
select domain, expiration_datefrom whois_domainwhere domain = 'steampipe.io';
+--------------+---------------------+| domain | expiration_date |+--------------+---------------------+| steampipe.io | 2021-10-13 19:28:29 |+--------------+---------------------+
