Goldpinger is a Kubernetes debugging tool that runs as a DaemonSet and makes calls between its instances to test and visualize network connectivity between cluster nodes. It exposes Prometheus metrics and a UI graph for troubleshooting connectivity and latency issues.

Use cases

  • debug network connectivity between kubernetes nodes
  • visualize cluster networking health as a graph
  • alert on node-to-node connectivity failures with prometheus
  • troubleshoot slow network paths in a k8s cluster
  • monitor packet loss and RTT between nodes
  • run chaos engineering experiments on cluster networking

When to choose

  • you run Kubernetes and need to diagnose node-to-node networking issues
  • you want Prometheus metrics and Grafana dashboards for cluster connectivity
  • you need a lightweight, self-hosted network health checker for your cluster

When to avoid

  • you need application-level or service-mesh traffic monitoring rather than node connectivity
  • you are not running Kubernetes
  • you need deep packet inspection or flow-level network analysis
