A tweet highlighting Steampipe, an open-source tool that lets practitioners query cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, and other services using SQL instead of jumping between consoles or writing ad-hoc scripts. It calls out concrete security/ops use cases such as finding publicly accessible storage buckets, resources missing required labels, and Kubernetes namespaces without NetworkPolicies, and links to a longer tutorial on devopscube.com. The author frames it as a quick investigation layer on top of live cloud data, not a CSPM/AWS Config replacement.

TL;DR Steampipe lets you SQL-query AWS, Kubernetes and other cloud services to quickly spot misconfigurations like public buckets or missing NetworkPolicies.
