Top 10 kubernetes-monitoring Open-Source Projects
-
There is, also developed by k8s team, the kube-state-metrics, a service that listens to the Kubernetes API server and generates metrics about the state of the objects such as deployments, nodes, and pods.
-
goldpinger
Debugging tool for Kubernetes which tests and displays connectivity between nodes in the cluster.
-
SonarLint
Deliver Cleaner and Safer Code - Right in Your IDE of Choice!. SonarLint is a free and open source IDE extension that identifies and catches bugs and vulnerabilities as you code, directly in the IDE. Install from your favorite IDE marketplace today.

A developer's workflow should anyway deploy to a real, or close-to-production Kubernetes cluster before opening a merge request with the finished change. That means the developer definitely sees upfront if the manifest is super wrong. Tools like kube-score (which is quite opinionated), kubeval or OPA rules can help in addition to keep things consistent and secure. For such a developer workflow, I recommend Skaffold since it mostly just wraps Docker, kubectl and the templating tool you're using (e.g. kustomize/helm).
-
botkube
An app that helps you monitor your Kubernetes cluster, debug critical deployments & gives recommendations for standard practices

tobs
tobs - The Observability Stack for Kubernetes. Easy install of a full observability stack into a k8s cluster with a CLI tool or Helm charts.
Hi! So the team is over 100 at this point, but engineering effort is spread across multiple products at this point.
The core timescaledb repo [0] has 10-15 primary engineers (although we are aggressively hiring for database internal engineers), with a few others working on DB hyperfunctions and our function pipelining [1] in a separate extension [2]. I think generally the set of folks who contribute to low-level database internals in C is just smaller than other type of projects.
We also have our promscale product [3], which is our observability backend powered by SQL & TimescaleDB.
And then there is Timescale Cloud, which is obviously a large engineering effort (most of which does not happen in public repos).
And we are hiring. Fully remote & global.
