powerpipe

Powerpipe is dashboards and benchmarks as code. Use it to visualize any data source, and run compliance benchmarks and controls, for effective decision-making and ongoing compliance monitoring.

Dashboards. Powerpipe runs dashboards that present data in visual and interactive ways.

Benchmarks. Powerpipe can also run benchmarks, which are packages of controls to check your infrastructure against compliance standards.

Modularity and customization. Dashboards and benchmarks are built with HCL and SQL, and are available for remixing and reuse.

Run a dashboard

Dashboards use charts, tables, and interactive widgets to help you explore and visualize your resources. For example, the RNAcentrals mod visualizes a dataset of RNA types. To run the RNACentral dashboard:

1. git clone https://github.com/turbot/powerpipe-mod-rnacentral

2. cd powerpipe-mod-rnacentral

3. powerpipe server --database postgres://reader:NWDMCE5xdipIjRrp@hh-pgsql-public.ebi.ac.uk:5432/pfmegrnargs

4. open localhost:9033 in a browser

That's it! Here's the dashboard.

Run a benchmark

Many Powerpipe mods includes benchmarks that check your cloud resources for compliance. The Net Insights mod provides configuration, compliance and security controls to validate security best practices for DNS records. To run the SSL/TLS Best Practices benchmark:

1. git clone https://github.com/turbot/powerpipe-mod-net-insights

2. cd powerpipe-mod-net-insights

3. powerpipe server

4. open localhost:9033 in a browser ``

Here's the dashboard.

You can run benchmarks as dashboards too! Here's the console ouput.
