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.

- Grafana Beyla: OSS eBPF auto-instrumentation for application observability
-
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).
- Improving Observability of Go Services

Launch HN: Odigos (YC W23) โ 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.

statsviz: Visualise Go program runtime metrics in real time in your browser
Sure. Check out the examples, https://github.com/arl/statsviz/blob/main/_example/README.md I guess I should add a table of contents to that readme
