Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

How do remote interfaces work in wireshark?
As long as your custom service used the rpcap protocol I'd expect it to be possible. You may find this GitHub page informative, since it includes some rpcap source code and one of the main Wireshark developers appears to be a contributor there.

How to reverse engineer a JSON API on a single page application
mitmproxy can be used to find the HTTP request with the needed data in addition browser dev tools. At some point, I'll explore tcpdump and wireshark to reverse engineer websites for web scraping and share the learnings with you.

Chibicc – A Small C Compiler
(Of course, this consideration should be appropriately downweighted by YAGNI, as threading memory management through prototype or internal utility code can by itself easily force it into very non-prototype amounts of effort.)

Question re C interop, type, for use with std.mem
I am working with libpcap, a library that parses packets captured from tcpdump, which I have cIncluded from Zig.

Implement DevSecOps to Secure your CI/CD pipeline
Nmap and Wireshark, tcpdump tools can be used to scan networks and packets.

Working on Net+, Need Some Direction
Also definitely start looking at tcpdump and wireshark. These are invaluable tools for the non-network engineer that is perhaps a sysadmin or analyst to use for network troubleshooting.

Modding
For future reference, libpcap is a library that Wireshark and many other network analysis tools use to record network traffic. It has its own file format that it can use to save the recorded network traffic to disk.

Linux Debugging
A lot is covered here and here, sar might be useful, getfacl and tcpdump and probably hundred more tools I am not even aware of. The easiest to learn those is to have a problem and identify and solve it with those tools, but to do that you need to know roughly what those tools can do.

Gain Visibility into Istio mTLS Traffic with Mizu
For example, gopacket uses libpcap by default for capturing the traffic. Libpcap doesn't support network namespaces and we can't ask it to listen to traffic on a different namespace. However, we can change the network namespace of the calling thread and then start libpcap to see the traffic on a different namespace.

Release Radar · April 2024 Edition: Major updates from the open source community
It's like Prometheus, but for logs. Okay it's not really to do with the Norse or Greek gods, instead Loki is a horizontally-scalable, highly-available, multi-tenant log aggregation system inspired by the open source project Prometheus. Built by Grafana Labs, Loki is designed for ease of use. Instead of indexing the contents of the logs, Loki provides a set of labels for each log stream. The latest update includes query acceleration with Bloom filters, native OTel support, Helm charts, and more. Check out the changelog for all the major changes and deprecations.

Tools for frontend monitoring with Prometheus
Developers widely use Prometheus as a system for operational monitoring and alerting for their projects. Here is a list of tools for monitoring frontend services with Prometheus.

The power of the CLI with Golang and Cobra CLI
Just to give an example of the power of Go for CLI builds, you may have already used or at least heard of Docker, Kubernetes, Prometheus, Terraform, but what do they all have in common? They all have a large part of their usability via CLI and are developed in Go 🐿.

On Implementation of Distributed Protocols
Distributed system administrators need mechanisms and tools for monitoring individual nodes in order to analyze the system and promptly detect anomalies. Developers also need effective mechanisms for analyzing, diagnosing issues, and identifying bugs in protocol implementations. Logging, tracing, and collecting metrics are common observability techniques to allow monitoring and obtaining diagnostic information from the system; most of the explored code bases use these techniques. OpenTelemetry and Prometheus are popular open-source monitoring solutions, which are used in many of the explored code bases.

Golang: out-of-box backpressure handling with gRPC, proven by a Grafana dashboard
Setting up monitoring for a system, especially one involving GRPC communication, provides crucial visibility into its operations. In this guide, we walked through the steps to instrument both a GRPC server and client with Prometheus metrics, exposed those metrics via an HTTP endpoint, and visualized them using Grafana. The Docker-Compose setup simplified the deployment of both Prometheus and Grafana, ensuring a streamlined process.

Monitoring, Observability, and Telemetry Explained
Alerting and Notification: Select a tool with flexible alerting mechanisms to proactively detect anomalies or deviations from defined thresholds. Consider asking questions like "Does this tool offer customizable alerting options and support notification channels that suit our team's communication preferences?" A tool like Prometheus provides robust alerting capabilities.

tcpdump - the TCPdump network dissector
skywalking - APM, Application Performance Monitoring System
gopacket - Provides packet processing capabilities for Go
Jolokia - JMX on Capsaicin
ngrep - ngrep is like GNU grep applied to the network layer. It's a PCAP-based tool that allows you to specify an extended regular or hexadecimal expression to match against data payloads of packets. It understands many kinds of protocols, including IPv4/6, TCP, UDP, ICMPv4/6, IGMP and Raw, across a wide variety of interface types, and understands BPF filter logic in the same fashion as more common packet sniffing tools, such as tcpdump and snoop.
