In this episode, we speak with Gerald Combs, director of open source at Sysdig, and Loris Degioanni, founder and CTO of Sysdig. They both co-created Wireshark and are now releasing a new tool called Stratoshark for inspecting cloud-native environments.

We discuss:

What the technology landscape looked like when they created Wireshark in the 90s
Why they created Stratoshark
The connection between the two tools
The future of Stratoshark
