Kubeshark is an API traffic viewer for Kubernetes. Until November 2022, it was known as Mizu. Unlike other tools, Kubeshark does not require instrumentation or code changes. It runs as a DaemonSet to inject a container at the node level in your Kubernetes cluster and performs tcpdump-like operations. We find it useful as a debugging tool, as it can observe all API communications across multiple protocols (REST, gRPC, Kafka, AMQP and Redis) in real time.
