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.
Benchmarks - 5,000+ open-source controls from CIS, NIST, PCI, HIPAA, FedRamp and more. Run instantly on your machine or as part of your deployment pipeline.
Relationship Diagrams - The only dashboarding tool designed from the ground up to visualize DevOps data. Explore your cloud, understand relationships, drill down to the details.
Dashboards & Reports - High-level dashboards provide a quick overview. Use them to highlight misconfigurations and hotspots. Filter, pivot, and snapshot results.
Code, not clicks - Our dashboards are code: version-controlled, composable, shareable, easy to edit — designed for the way you work. Join our open-source community!

Install Powerpipe
The downloads page shows you how, but tl;dr:
Linux or WSL
sudo /bin/sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://powerpipe.io/install/powerpipe.sh)"
MacOS
brew tap turbot/tap
brew install powerpipe
Your first 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:
mkdir rna && cd rna
powerpipe mod install https://github.com/turbot/powerpipe-mod-rnacentral
powerpipe server --database postgres://reader:NWDMCE5xdipIjRrp@hh-pgsql-public.ebi.ac.uk:5432/pfmegrnargs
View your dashboard at http://localhost:9033
Dashboards and Benchmarks with Steampipe
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:
# Net insights uses the net plugin from Steampipe
steampipe plugin install net
steampipe service start
# Install the Powerpipe mod
mkdir net && cd net
powerpipe mod install https://github.com/turbot/powerpipe-mod-net-insights
# Start the dashboard server
powerpipe server
View your dashboard at http://localhost:9033
You can run benchmarks as dashboards too! Here's the console ouput.
powerpipe benchmark run benchmark.ssl_certificate_best_practices --output=brief
