Pipeline: Detect & correct Kusto clusters exceeding max age

Detect & correct Kusto clusters exceeding max age

Overview

Kusto clusters can be quite costly to retain, it is also likely that after a certain point in time they're no longer required and should be cleaned up to prevent further costs.

This pipeline allows you to specify a collection of Kusto clusters and then either send notifications or attempt to perform a predefined corrective action upon the collection.

Getting Started

This control will work out-of-the-box with some sensible defaults (configurable via variables).

You should be able to simply run the following command in your terminal:

flowpipe pipeline run detect_and_correct_kusto_clusters_exceeding_max_age

By default, Flowpipe runs in wizard mode and prompts directly in the terminal for a decision on the action(s) to take for each detected resource.

However, you can run Flowpipe in server mode with external integrations, allowing it to prompt for input via http, slack, teams, etc.

Alternatively, you can choose to configure and run in other modes:

  • Notify: Provides detections without taking any corrective action.
  • Automatic: Performs corrective actions automatically without user intervention.

Run the pipeline

To run this pipeline from your terminal:

flowpipe pipeline run azure_thrifty.pipeline.detect_and_correct_kusto_clusters_exceeding_max_age

Use this pipeline

To call this pipeline from your pipeline, use a step:

step "pipeline" "step_name" {
pipeline = azure_thrifty.pipeline.detect_and_correct_kusto_clusters_exceeding_max_age
}
