Anykap: Rule Based Observability in Kubernetes Nodes

Feature

• A Daemonset based troubleshooting tool.
• Event based scripting system for defining your own capture flow.
• Pod/Container discovery with crictl.
• Artifact management.
• Relies on tools that you already know, not re-inventing wheels. Need packet capture? Run tcpdump; Need check io performance? Run your favourite performance tool.
• No special container image required. General purpose image like alpine works out-of-box.
