MacOS Setup

Step 1: Install CloudQuery

To install CloudQuery, run the following command in your terminal:

brew install cloudquery/tap/cloudquery

Step 2: Create a Configuration File

Next, run the following command to initialize a sync configuration file for AWS Pricing to Snowflake:

cloudquery init --source=awspricing --destination=snowflake

This will generate a config file named awspricing_to_snowflake.yaml. Follow the instructions to fill out the necessary fields to authenticate against your own environment.

Step 3: Log in to CloudQuery CLI

Next, log in to the CloudQuery CLI. If you have't already, you can sign up for a free account as part of this step:

cloudquery login

Step 4: Run a Sync

cloudquery sync awspricing_to_snowflake.yaml

This will start syncing data from the AWS Pricing API to your Snowflake database! 🚀

See the CloudQuery documentation portal for more deployment guides, options and further tips.

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.
Why does CloudQuery require login?
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.
Do I need AWS credentials in order to sync from AWS pricing to Snowflake?
No, you don't need to provide access credentials to use CloudQuery to syncing data from AWS Pricing to Snowflake. This is because all information in the AWS Pricing API is publicly available and unrelated to your account or current billing setup.
I have an offer code, can I use this to change the pricing I receive?
Yes. If you have an offer code, then you can add this to the ‘offer_codes’ spec when you set up the sync. This code will then be applied to all pricing information that is returned during the sync.
Can I specify the region I receive pricing for?
Yes. This is done in the region_codes spec when you set up your sync. Keep in mind that regular expressions are not supported, so you will need to exactly specify which regions you want to receive pricing information for when you set up your AWS Pricing to Snowflake sync.
Should I load information directly to Snowflake from AWS Pricing or load via remote storage?
For testing purposes, loading directly into Snowflake is the fastest way to get started and check you are achieving the desired results. However, we don’t recommend choosing this approach for a particularly large dataset or once you move to a production environment. At this stage, it is recommended to sync the data from your source to a CSV or JSON file in a remote storage environment such as S3 or Google Cloud Storage and then running a Snowflake cron job or using SnowPipe to load that information into a Snowflake stage.
What authentication options are available for the Snowflake integration?
You can choose between basic authentication using a username and password or use a private and public key pair to authenticate with Snowflake. If you choose to use a private key, you can either place this inline in the specification or reference a separate file where the private key is stored.
