Maybe give Honeycomb a try, to diagnose Kubernetes spikes?

Super excited about the ship it podcast!
I have only been listening to this for the past 2 years, but it has made me so excited to hear about your adventures that you all have gone on with it! Not very many people talk about that in a podcast format ( which is my preferred information ingestion medium ), so I loved hearing about this and can’t wait to hear more with ship it!

Also, I don’t know if this will be applicable for your infrastructure ( because IIRC they are a type of APM ), but pixie labs uses some pretty cool technology ( eBPF ) to help with observability. So, maybe asking them if they could help or recommend someone else?
You can learn more about it on this SEDaily episode ( they were recently acquired by New Relic, so that is why it doesn’t say pixie on the show title 😅 ).
