env zero and CloudQuery merge

env zero and CloudQuery have announced the close of their merger. The combined company will operate under the env zero brand and will deliver a unified cloud intelligence platform that pairs deep asset visibility with automated action. The goal is simple and practical. Give enterprise platform teams a single place to understand what is in the cloud and to bring it to a desired state with confidence.

env zero and CloudQuery Announce Merger to Create the Industry's First Unified Cloud Intelligence Platform

The merger addresses a common and costly gap faced by modern cloud teams. Infrastructure that exists outside Infrastructure as Code is often invisible to automation tools, and discovery tools are not equipped to safely fix it. By combining CloudQuery data pipelines and complete cloud asset inventory with env zero infrastructure automation, the new env zero continuously discovers what is running across accounts and providers, maps it to intended state, and reconciles it through approved workflows. This closes the loop between visibility and action and helps teams keep environments reliable, compliant, and cost aware.

A Unified Vision From Day Zero To Day N

Infrastructure as Code defines what teams intend to deploy. Asset management reveals what has already been deployed. The missing capability has been a system that keeps these two realities aligned over time. The combined platform brings these threads together. It delivers automation informed by context and context that leads to safe action. From Day Zero provisioning through Day N operations, platform engineers gain a single control plane that is grounded in data and built for change.

We kept hearing the same thing from customers. Visibility without action and action without context both fall short. Customers need visibility, context, and action working together in one place, and that is what we are delivering, said Steve Corndell, Chief Executive Officer of the new env zero. By bringing CloudQuery data capabilities into env zero, we give platform engineers a complete way to manage secure, resilient, and cost effective cloud environments from the first line of code through continuous operations.

Leadership And Innovation

The combined company is led by Steve Corndell as Chief Executive Officer. Yevgeny Pats, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of CloudQuery, joins as Chief Technology Officer and will guide the technical integration and future roadmap. Industry veteran Oved Lourie joins as Field CTO, a role created to keep customer needs central to platform evolution and ensure the delivery of practical solutions to real world problems.

CloudQuery was built to solve the visibility problem in modern cloud infrastructure, said Yevgeny Pats, Chief Technology Officer of the new env zero. Joining env zero lets us close the loop between knowing what exists and taking action on it. Together, we are building an autonomous system that not only tells you what you have in the cloud, but works to keep it reliable and compliant automatically.

Closing The Operational Gap For Platform Engineering

Platform engineering now sits at the intersection of security, compliance, financial governance, and performance. Development speed continues to increase as teams adopt advanced tooling and automation, and that speed requires strong guardrails. Historically siloed security, compliance, FinOps, and performance functions cannot keep pace unless they operate from the same data and the same workflow engine. The new env zero fills this need by merging Infrastructure as Code governance with real time asset intelligence. The result is a practical control plane that helps teams standardize patterns, enforce policy, and manage drift across multi cloud footprints.

The operational gap is the space between what you intended to build and what is actually running, added Steve Corndell. As code moves faster, that gap becomes liability. By combining our Infrastructure as Code expertise with CloudQuery context rich insights, we give platform teams a single view to manage security, compliance, cost, and performance in one place. We are not only helping teams ship. We are helping them run the cloud responsibly.

Availability And Next Steps

The merger has officially closed. Customers of both platforms will continue to receive support, with an accelerated roadmap for integrated features such as unified policy, automated reconciliation, and shared data models. Executives from the new env zero are available for press and customer briefings and will meet with customers and partners at major industry events, including KubeCon Europe in Amsterdam, by request.
