About Pixie

Pixie provides open source Kubernetes observability for developers. The product is auto-instrumented, scriptable, and Kubernetes native. It accesses metrics, events, traces and logs without changing code, using dynamic eBPF probes and ingestors. Pixie runs entirely inside Kubernetes clusters without storing customer data outside them. Users can run community, team, or custom scripts to debug as code.

Products

  • Pixie CLI: Used for health checks and charts without leaving the development workflow.
  • Pixie Live: Navigates data using auto-generated views and debug sessions.
  • PxL Scripts: Scripts contributed by a team or community run through the px command interface to debug as code.

  • Monitoring service health
  • Logging Golang applications
