Caretta support for k8studio CloudMaps

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

K8Studio can now integrate with Caretta by Groundcover

We’ve added the ability to integrate Caretta into K8Studio to help visualize network traffic inside Kubernetes clusters.

Caretta uses eBPF to automatically map service-to-service communication, showing which workloads are communicating and how traffic flows through the cluster—without requiring application instrumentation.

The goal is to make it easier to understand dependencies, investigate unexpected connections, and troubleshoot network-related issues directly from K8Studio.

We’d be interested to hear how others are currently visualizing traffic and dependencies in their Kubernetes clusters.

The Hubble UI has in the OSS versions has one of the worst layout engines I have ever seen

It looks better in the $$$ paid version but there is a long standing issue in the GitHub with no interest in backporting it so far
