Gyeeta is a free, open-source observability tool for self-hosted Linux environments.
What Gyeeta is
Gyeeta is a free, open-source observability tool for self-hosted Linux environments. It uses eBPF and kernel statistics to monitor hosts, services, and processes without application instrumentation. For TCP services, it reports query rates, latency, network throughput, active connections, and process resource use. Gyeeta automatically discovers TCP services, clients, and dependencies without application code changes or configuration inputs. Its algorithms can detect service degradation or contention and suggest a probable cause. Results are available through a Web UI or REST APIs, with JSON responses and queries spanning multiple hosts. Alerts can be sent by email, Slack, PagerDuty, or webhooks. Documentation says data remains in-house. Deployment options include shell scripts, Helm charts, Docker containers, rpm or deb packages, and tar packages. The architecture documentation describes monitoring tens of thousands of hosts through one central server and multiple intermediate servers. Gyeeta supports x86_64 Linux hosts with kernel 4.4 or newer. It does not support serverless environments, application logs, UDP or Unix-domain-socket statistics, or direct metrics integrations from several named platforms.
Good
- Free and open source under GPLv3
- No application instrumentation required
- Automatic TCP service discovery
- Supports multiple alert channels
- Offers several self-hosted deployment methods
Watch out
- Linux-only host support
- Does not support serverless environments
- No application log monitoring
- Basic Authentication uses fixed credentials
Who it suits
Gyeeta suits teams managing self-hosted x86_64 Linux systems that want agent-based service observability. It is also useful for users who need Web UI and REST API access while keeping data in-house.
Verdict
Gyeeta provides broad TCP service visibility and multiple deployment choices without a license fee. Its Linux scope, unsupported data types, and planned rather than current OIDC/OAuth2 support should shape deployment decisions.
