eBPF-powered observability tools for Kubernetes and Linux systems

About Inspektor Gadget

Inspektor Gadget is an open-source observability framework designed for enterprises running Kubernetes clusters and Linux hosts. Leveraging eBPF technology, it provides deep system inspection and data collection capabilities that map low-level system insights to high-level Kubernetes and container resources. This enables IT operations and engineering teams to gain comprehensive visibility into their infrastructure performance and behavior.

The platform offers deployable gadgets encapsulating eBPF programs, facilitating efficient and performant system monitoring without significant overhead. As a Cloud Native Computing Foundation Sandbox Project, Inspektor Gadget is built for cloud-native environments, supporting container-aware observability with an integrated toolset for data collection, filtering, formatting, and exporting. Its open-source nature encourages community contributions and extensibility, making it suitable for enterprises seeking customizable and transparent observability solutions.
