alaz
Alaz: Advanced eBPF Agent for Kubernetes Observability – Effortlessly monitor K8s service interactions and performance metrics in your K8s environment. Gain in-depth insights with service maps, metrics, distributed tracing, and more, while staying alert to crucial system anomalies 🐝
-
kubeshark
The API traffic analyzer for Kubernetes providing real-time K8s protocol-level visibility, capturing and monitoring all traffic and payloads going in, out and across containers, pods, nodes and clusters. Inspired by Wireshark, purposely built for Kubernetes
-
WorkOS
The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

In addition, Alaz can capture system resources like CPU, Memory, Disk, and Network through the Prometheus Node Exporter, which is embedded in the agent.
Setting up is straightforward: just install Alaz as a DaemonSet, and the platform will handle the rest.
Finally, the combination of Alaz and Ddosify Performance Testing makes it possible to do load testing and simultaneously monitor the system to find bottlenecks instantly.

Your feedback would be greatly appreciated!
The one similar product I had come across is Kubeshark (https://github.com/kubeshark/kubeshark). But admittedly the eBPF way seems more performant theoretically (given you can afford to have a modern-enough kernel). I'm really excited to see how this project develops out.
The eBPF-mode of innovation is pretty exciting, truly a fresh lens to building software. I'm also following Akita Software - the company building an eBPF paradigm of monitoring.
I am really curious, why build another project that has similar features as another open source software pixie - https://px.dev/.
