Powerpipe

Powerpipe is a free, open-source tool from Turbot for turning cloud infrastructure data into dashboards and security or compliance benchmarks. Prebuilt dashboards cover AWS, Azure, GCP, Kubernetes, and more, with views of resource quantity, cost, usage, and relationships. Benchmarks assess environments against frameworks including CIS, GDPR, NIST, PCI, and SOC 2. Users can write dashboards and benchmarks in HCL or combine existing ones, then version and share the code using Git tooling. Powerpipe serves a locally hosted web interface for filtering, grouping, pivoting, and snapshotting results. Its CLI lists and runs benchmarks and controls, and exports results in formats such as CSV, HTML, JSON, Markdown, and ASFF. It works with PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, or DuckDB without requiring Steampipe. Installation options include macOS, Linux, and Windows; the tool can also be self-hosted. Powerpipe Hub offers hundreds of dashboards, benchmarks, and examples. Listed uses include security and compliance monitoring, cost management, detections, and asset inventory.
