Use Cilium Hubble flow evidence and proxymock replay to prove whether a Kubernetes timeout came from your code, a dependency, or a dropped packet.
Synthetic Monitoring Is Broken. Your Production Traffic Can Fix It.
Synthetic monitoring depends on scripts engineers maintain by hand. Capturing and replaying real production transactions turns customer behavior into tests.
