I look forward to a future where everything is SQL at this point. It seems we have spent a significant amount of effort avoiding it, but it time and time again is the best way to query your data.

I recently started using Steampipe and it has made my life about 30x better not having to deal with the AWS or Slack API. Essentially a tool to let you query their APIs using SQL, behind the scenes it boots up a Postgres database and essentially does ETL into it.

It doesn't do any updates to resources though, so back to the API again...
