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.

Show HN: Alaz: Open-Source, Self-Hosted, eBPF-Based K8s Monitoring
I am really curious, why build another project that has similar features as another open source software pixie - https://px.dev/.

Open source alternatives to Grafana
Kibana is a good alternative if you can allow storing all your data in Elasticsearch, or you can use all-in-one monitoring tools like pixie https://github.com/pixie-io/pixie

Lens Dashboard for monitoring multiple AKS/EKS/... clusters
Plenty of paid monitoring solutions out there. Instana is pretty slick. NewRelic has a new open source tool, https://github.com/pixie-io/pixie

Too many cook in the kitchen? I find everyone just wanna create their own Kubernetes plugin solution.
Cilium multi-cluster mesh is a bit different, compared to service meshes, and it's L4, so should be fine with eBPF / XDP based routing. From observability standpoint I'd go for pixie - it should work just fine with both linkerd and istio, instead of Hubble, and Cilium's Tetragon was missing policies about 3-4 months ago (needs doublec-hecking if they had introduced any).

Launch HN: Odigos (YC W23) – Instant distributed tracing for Kubernetes clusters
Congratulations on the launch, and thank you for choosing an awesome license!
For an unrelated reason, today I was reminded about Pixie (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25375170 and https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31687978 and https://github.com/pixie-io/pixie#readme ), which says is also an ebpf kubernetes observability tool, also Apache licensed.
I suspect the difference may be your aspirations to move out of just kubernetes, but I wondered if that's the biggest difference between your project and theirs? Or maybe the C++ versus golang?
- Linux /proc/pid/stat parsing bugs
- Go based eBPF projects

Does mTLS add request latency due to ssl termination? Any best practices for performance?
eBPF solutions look cool though. I heard of https://px.dev/ which sounds similar to ciliums eBPF mesh recently.

7 Kubernetes Companies to Watch in 2022
Isovalent makes an enterprise version of Cilium, an open source tool that uses eBPF to provide security and observability for cloud native environments. Liz gave a great talk at KubeCon Los Angeles about eBPF that I highly recommend. My reaction to her talk was that I wished I had Cilium years ago to troubleshoot some difficult incidents. When I first heard about eBPF I had thought of it more from the observability standpoint, but Cilium also provides a CNI plugin, transparent encryption, logs for security audits, and much more.
