Azure syncing using CloudQuery is easy to set up and maintain thanks to its simple YAML configuration. Once synced, you can use normal SQL queries to work with your data.

A huge library of supported destinations

S3 isn’t the only place we can sync your Azure data to. Whatever you need to do with your Azure data, CloudQuery can make it happen. We support a huge range of destinations, customizable transformations for ETL, and we regularly release new plugins.

Extensible and Open Source SDK

Write your own connectors in any language by utilizing the CloudQuery open source SDK powered by Apache Arrow. Get out-of-the-box scheduling, rate-limiting, transformation, documentation and much more.

Step by step guide for how to export data from Azure to S3

MacOS Windows Linux

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 Azure to S3:

cloudquery init --source=azure --destination=s3

This will generate a config file named azure_to_s3.yaml. Follow the instructions to fill out the necessary fields to authenticate against your own environment.

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 azure_to_s3.yaml

This will start syncing data from the Azure API to your S3 environment! 🚀

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.

What data can CloudQuery sync from Azure to S3?

The CloudQuery Azure Integration can sync a wide variety of Azure data to S3. You can also limit the data that is synced to data contained in a particular subscription.

What permissions does the CloudQuery Azure Integration require?

We recommend that you only grant read permissions to the integration as this is all that you will require to sync your data from Microsoft Azure to S3. As this is a source integration, CloudQuery will never write information to Azure.

Can I rate limit the requests that CloudQuery makes to the Azure API?

If you would like to reduce the number of requests that CloudQuery can make to the API when it is syncing data from Azure to S3 then you can set a rate limit in your account. These are managed on a per-subscription basis and further information can be found here.

Which permissions do I need to grant in S3 in order to sync from Azure?

The CloudQuery integration only requires PutObject permissions to sync to the S3 destination and we recommend that you grant only these permissions to CloudQuery in order to keep your setup as secure as possible. CloudQuery does not require access to your S3 cloud configuration settings, only permission to add objects to your S3 buckets.

Can CloudQuery read from my credentials and config S3 files?

Yes, if you want CloudQuery to use these credentials, then the files need to be located in the .aws directory of your home folder. The two files are almost identical in format but if there is a conflict, CloudQuery will prioritise the credential information that it reads from the credentials file over those found in config.

What formats can CloudQuery load from Azure to an S3 destination?

CloudQuery can load information in your choice of csv, parquet or json. This is specified in the format field.
