Hi HN, I'm Tyler Flint. Eight months ago we shared qtap here ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43928118 ). Today we're releasing DevTools - a browser-based interface that give…

Java is supported, but currently in the pro version. Since JavaSSL is implemented in Java code, which runs in the Java VM and not exported as static symbols that can be uprobe'd, t…

Great idea! On an unrelated note, your work has inspired most of my career in Solaris/Illumos/Linux systems and honestly this project likely wouldn't have happened if it wasn't for…

The short answer is that we only have to calculate the offset per go version, no expensive runtime scanning is required. The long answer is that the offsets are the byte alignment …

The main benefit is complete coverage. In production systems there are many different workloads with many different binaries, each with different build processes. Leveraging eBPF e…

Just run the qtap agent on whatever Linux machine has apps running on it and it will see everything through the kernel vs eBPF. You can customize config and/or integrate with exist…

We have Go support, but it is not open sourced yet. Go is a bit more complicated but we were able to get it after some cave diving in the ELF formats. To give you a little insight …

Great point! Yes it supports both scenarios. Qtap scans the binary ELF (curl, rust, etc) and looks for the TLS symbols. If they were statically compiled the eBPF probes will be att…

Hi HN, I'm Tyler Flint, one of the creators of qtap. For a while now, my team and I at Qpoint.io have been grappling with the challenge of understanding what's actually happening i…

That's the highest requested feature! Should be available in Q1 of 2018.

fixing now. Thanks for the heads up

Some of those aren't PaaS, but container orchestration frameworks. If you're reading this list of comparisons out of genuine interest, I would suggest also looking into Nanobox: ht…

I don't mean to be controversial here, but I really don't think so. If you're a quality engineer, you should stay away from Magento at all cost. I recently tried to download M2 and…

Nanobox supports many languages. We are particularly excited about elixir though!

Nanobox is free for developers to use for personal and open source projects.

I think you're right. Thanks for the advice!

NFS will be the default adapter for nanobox, but can be disabled.

This is an issue we just became aware of. Working on a fix as we speak.

Thanks for the feedback. You might want to keep any eye on Nanobox Cloud ( https://nanobox.io/cloud/ ).

Thanks for the heads up! Please keep in mind this is an open-source project in the pre-beta phase. Any contributions are welcomed!

Yes, nanobox will try to auto-configure your environment for you. If you would rather define your environment or if nanobox can't auto-configure your environment, you can either: 1…

You're right, not every scenario can be handled automatically. For that reason, the Boxfile is king: https://docs.nanobox.io/getting-started/boxfile/
