Decision brief
Kubeshark is an eBPF-powered network observability tool for Kubernetes that offers full L4/L7 traffic indexing and TLS decryption without needing keys.
Good fit when
- - When you need to perform deep inspection of Kubernetes traffic on both layer 4 (transport) and layer 7 (application), with contextual information from the Kubernetes environment
- - For situations where real-time TLS decryption is needed but access to TLS keys is not available or feasible
Avoid when
- - If your primary focus is on a different cloud platform as Kubeshark is deeply integrated with Kubernetes and provides its full context along side traffic observations
- - When the system does not support eBPF, which is critical for Kubeshark's operation
