env zero and CloudQuery announced the successful close of their merger.

The combined company will operate under the env zero brand, creating a powerhouse in the cloud operations space.

By combining CloudQuery’s complete cloud asset inventory with env zero’s infrastructure automation engine, we’re creating a new kind of platform—one that continuously discovers everything running in your cloud and automatically brings it to its desired state.

IaC manages what teams intend to deploy. Asset tools show what already exists. But cloud teams still lack a system that connects the two. The combination of env zero and CloudQuery will change that, combining infrastructure automation with complete cloud asset intelligence to manage the entire lifecycle of cloud infrastructure, from Day 0 provisioning to Day N operations.

“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 exactly what we are giving them,” said Steve Corndell, CEO of the new env zero. “By bringing CloudQuery’s data capabilities into env zero, we’re giving platform engineers a complete solution to manage reliable, secure, and cost-effective cloud environments—from the first line of code through the entire lifecycle.”

The combined company will be led by Steve Corndell as Chief Executive Officer. Yevgeny Pats, Founder and CEO of CloudQuery, will join the leadership team as Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of the new env zero, overseeing the integration of the two technologies and driving the future product roadmap.

“CloudQuery was built to solve the visibility problem inherent in modern cloud infrastructure,” said Yevgeny Pats. “Joining env zero allows us to close the loop between knowing what exists and taking action on it. Together, we are building an autonomous system that doesn't just tell you what you have in the cloud, but ensures it stays reliable and compliant automatically.”

The combined company also welcomes industry veteran Oved Lourie as Field CTO, a role purpose-built to keep customer voice at the center of the platform's evolution, ensuring that what gets built is exactly what the market demands.

“The 'Operational Gap' is the space between what you intended to build and what is actually running in the cloud,” added Steve Corndell. “As foundational models push code to production faster than ever before, that gap becomes a liability. By combining our IaC expertise with CloudQuery's context-rich insights, we are giving Platform Engineering teams a single pane of glass to manage security, compliance, cost and performance simultaneously. We aren't just helping teams deploy; we are helping them run their entire cloud operation autonomously.”

The merger officially closed on March 12. Customers of both platforms can expect continued support for existing services with an accelerated roadmap for integrated features.
