cloudexit is an open-source tool that empowers cloud engineers to conduct comprehensive cloud exit assessments. It helps identify and evaluate the risks associated with their cloud environment while providing actionable insights into the challenges and constraints of transitioning away from their current cloud provider. By leveraging EscapeCloud Community Edition, organizations can better prepare for a potential cloud exit, ensuring a smoother and more informed decision-making process.

Required Packages

# Optional: Set up a virtual environment
python3 -m venv ./venv
source venv/bin/activate

# Install required dependencies
python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt

Required Permissions

To conduct the assessment, the following role assignments or policies must be attached to the generated credentials:

Cloud Provider	Required Permissions
Microsoft Azure	Reader & Cost Management Reader
Amazon Web Services	ViewOnlyAccess & AWSBillingReadOnlyAccess

Getting Started

Once you have installed the required dependencies, you can use 'cloudexit' interactively via the console or by providing configuration files for a streamlined workflow:

python3 main.py

# Run with manual input for AWS:
python3 main.py aws

# Run with a configuration file for AWS:
python3 main.py aws --config config.json

# Run with an AWS CLI profile:
python3 main.py aws --profile PROFILE

# Run with manual input for Azure:
python3 main.py azure

# Run with a configuration file for Azure:
python3 main.py azure --config config.json

# Run with Azure CLI credentials:
python3 main.py azure --cli

The results are saved in the reports folder. Simply open the index.html file in the newly generated folder.

Each assessment creates a new folder named after its timestamp, containing both raw and standardized data.
