Turbot (by Akamai)
Automated governance and compliance for the cloud.
Overview
Turbot, now part of Akamai, is a powerful cloud governance platform that focuses on real-time, automated policy enforcement. It operates on a guardrails model, where policies (including for tagging) are defined and Turbot continuously monitors the environment. If any resource drifts from the policy, Turbot can automatically remediate it in real-time, ensuring continuous compliance. It uses a common controls framework that can be applied across AWS, Azure, and GCP.
