Abstract

Cloud compliance monitoring for a cloud compute environment managed by a container orchestrator may be performed by a data platform. For example, the data platform may obtain cluster configuration data from a control plane of a cluster that is managed by a container orchestrator within a cloud compute environment, obtain node configuration data from one or more compute nodes associated with a data plane of the cluster that is managed by the container orchestrator, and generate a compliance statement based on the cluster configuration data and node configuration data. The compliance statement may indicate a configuration posture of the cloud compute environment according to a compliance benchmark. Corresponding methods, systems, and products are also disclosed.
