Kubeshark: The API Traffic Viewer for Kubernetes

Kubeshark (formerly Mizu) is an observability and monitoring tool that captures all the network traffic inside a Kubernetes cluster, including ingress, egress and across containers and pods.

Kubeshark can even capture and display the encrypted (TLS) traffic using various Linux kernel technologies. It supports a wide variety of application layer protocols and RPCs like gRPC, GraphQL, etc.

Kubeshark is open-source and free to use. It has a large userbase.

We recently renamed the project from "Mizu" to "Kubeshark". Please give Kubeshark a shout-out. It's a carefully crafted tool by a handful of Kubernetes enthusiasts for Kubernetes enthusiasts!

Great name!

Huh, I was really confused at first because the screenshot was the first thing I looked at and thought that it looks exactly like mizu, which I found and used the first time last week. What a coincidence!

Really cool. Have previously used proxies/tcpdump to debug a bunch of traffic. This is going to be a useful tool in the toolkit for Kubernetes operators.

This is very cool and really needed, can't wait to try it out.

One benefit of terminating SSL at the load balancer is that you can read the http traffic sent to your pods. But for those that have SSL terminating at their pods, it would be cool if this tool could be given the SSL certificates of the pods so it can decipher https traffic.
