  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • opentelemetry-go

    OpenTelemetry Go API and SDK

    Jaeger traicing only works if your app supports it. In short, you need to put some headers to your http app and keep track of it. https://opentelemetry.io/ has more info.

  • netshoot

    a Docker + Kubernetes network trouble-shooting swiss-army container

    netshoot comes with a bunch of relevant tools pre-installed, so that's normally my goto when I need a troubleshooting pod on the host network.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • robusta

    Kubernetes observability and automation, with an awesome Prometheus integration

    It's no replacement for learning how things work, but we're trying to automate common troubleshooting cases with Robusta. https://github.com/robusta-dev/robusta

  • helm-dashboard

    The missing UI for Helm - visualize your releases

    I work at Komodor where we build tools to make life with Kubernetes much easier. Our commercial product has a 14-day free trial, but maybe you should first try our open-source tool called Helm-Dashboard. It's basically a GUI for Helm. Simple but very useful (and free!): https://github.com/komodorio/helm-dashboard
