Classification: CPC G  H | IPC G  H

Claim 0:
1. A computer-implemented method of detecting security posture of a cloud environment, the computer-implemented method comprising:
detecting a triggering criterion;
in response to the triggering criterion, automatically discovering a plurality of databases in the cloud environment, wherein automatically discovering the plurality of databases comprises accessing a cloud application programming interface (API) exposed by the cloud environment and executing a query through the cloud API that returns database identifiers that identify the plurality of databases that have logging enabled;
configuring an orchestration engine to deploy a plurality of log analyzer microservices on the plurality of databases,
each log analyzer microservice, of the plurality of log analyzer microservices, being configured to scan a respective database log that represents database activities on a respective database of the plurality of databases;

receiving analysis results from the plurality of log analyzer microservices, the analysis results representing detection of at least one of a performance criterion or a security criterion in one or more databases of the plurality of databases; and
generating an action signal representing the analysis results.
