|---|---|---|
| Linux requirement | Coroot requires a minimum supported Linux kernel version of 5.1 because it relies heavily on eBPF. | Gadgets developed by the project require Linux kernel 5.10 or later with BTF enabled. |
| Purpose | Coroot is an open-source observability platform powered by eBPF that collects metrics, logs, traces and profiling data without code changes. | Inspektor Gadget is a set of tools and a framework for eBPF-based data collection and system inspection on Kubernetes clusters and Linux hosts. |
Coroot suits engineering and operations teams that need infrastructure observability without changing application code. It also fits organisations requiring self-hosting, Kubernetes or Docker coverage, cloud-cost visibility and automated incident analysis.
Inspektor Gadget is for teams and developers inspecting Linux hosts or Kubernetes clusters with eBPF-based tools. It may suit operators who can manage its Linux requirements and self-hosted deployment.
