FAQs

What is CloudQuery?
CloudQuery is an open-source tool that helps you extract, transform, and load cloud asset data from various sources into databases for security, compliance, and visibility.

Logging in allows CloudQuery to authenticate your access to the CloudQuery Hub and monitor usage for billing purposes. Data synced with CloudQuery remains private to your environment and is not shared with our servers or any third parties.
What data does CloudQuery have access to?
CloudQuery accesses only the metadata and configurations of your cloud resources that you specify without touching sensitive data or workloads.
How is CloudQuery priced?
CloudQuery offers flexible pricing based on the number of cloud accounts and usage. Visit our pricing page for detailed plans.
Is there a free version of CloudQuery?
Yes, CloudQuery offers a free plan that includes basic features, perfect for smaller teams or personal use. More details can be found on our pricing page.
What permissions does the AWS integration require to run?
To sync your data to Opensearch the CloudQuery AWS integration only requires read permissions. The integration will never need to make any changes to your AWS setup, and we recommend that you only grant read permissions.
How will my data be kept secure?
CloudQuery does not have access to any of the data you sync from AWS. We only collect only metadata about usage for billing purposes. The CloudQuery CLI will only have access to the data that you grant it permission to access. You will always be in control of the data that is being synced from AWS to Opensearch and will have the ability to revoke permissions at any time.
What can I do with CloudQuery's OpenSearch integration?
CloudQuery's OpenSearch integration allows you to stream and manage cloud asset data into your OpenSearch clusters, providing real-time search and analytics capabilities for cloud infrastructure data.
How does the OpenSearch integration improve cloud asset management?
It helps you centralize and store cloud asset data in OpenSearch, enabling you to monitor and analyze asset performance, configuration, and utilization within a search-optimized platform.
Does CloudQuery support OpenSearch with authentication and encryption?
Yes, CloudQuery supports sending data to OpenSearch with authentication (HTTP basic or IAM roles) and encrypted communication via SSL/TLS. Ensure your OpenSearch cluster is configured with these security features enabled.
What kind of performance impact does sending data from CloudQuery have on my OpenSearch cluster?
CloudQuery is designed to optimize data streams and minimize load on OpenSearch clusters. You can manage performance impact by controlling batch sizes, scheduling data streams during off-peak hours, or limiting the scope of synced data.
