What does CloudQuery do?

CloudQuery syncs cloud and SaaS asset data from providers into databases so teams can query their own infrastructure inventory.

Is CloudQuery only for AWS?

No. CloudQuery supports multiple providers, with the README naming AWS, Azure, GCP, and 70-plus cloud and SaaS sources.

CloudQuery: Open Source Alternative to Flexera and Wiz

Cloud inventory gets scattered across consoles, accounts, regions, SaaS tools, and exported reports. Security and compliance teams need to answer basic questions about assets, misconfigurations, owners, and costs, but the source data lives behind many APIs.

A closed cloud posture product can help, but it often hides the raw data and query layer. Teams that already use SQL and data warehouses may want inventory data in their own systems.

CloudQuery vs Wiz

CloudQuery and Wiz both help teams understand cloud assets and security posture, but CloudQuery focuses on syncing raw inventory data into your own database. Wiz is a proprietary managed cloud security product with detection, prioritization, and workflow features built in.

CloudQuery is the better fit when a team wants SQL ownership of asset inventory and has the skills to build its own analysis. Wiz is still better when the organization needs a managed CSPM with ready-made detections, prioritization, and security workflows.

It can replace some inventory and query workflows, but teams still need to build policies, dashboards, and remediation processes.
