Show HN: CloudMapper, open-source tool for visualizing AWS environments

Looks like a great tool. The lovely folks at Hava.io are going to be unhappy about this!

The guy paying 1999/month is not going to switch to free & open source

I don't think that's accurate. We stopped paying because we couldn't justify the expense. Great product, great support, but we didn't have the necessary uptake with users. We would totally use an alternative like this.

There were people paying millions/month who switched to free and open source.

How terribly sad.

VisualOps.io is a relatively full featured SaaS, for designing AWS environments, generating CloudFormation, and converging environments, plus more ops tools.

It can also import to visualize:

“Want to visualize your current AWS deployment? No a problem, Import the existing resources and generate the relative diagram automatically.”

Nice! my account came out pretty ugly :( and took nearly 5min to generate. But this could be a handy addition to deployment pipelines/PRs when following Infrastructure as Code (as well as being on AWS).

Will keep my eyes on this.

I like it, but I am not sure all the neighbors/children are helpful in a large deployment. We're running about 100 instances but have 1800 connections.

Now if something like this could be built on top of Terraform provider-independent...

The demo totally locks up Brave
