ServiceRadar is an open-source platform for distributed, secure network management and observability, scaling to 100k+ devices. Born from frustration with complex traditional NMS tools like Zabbix, it bridges legacy (SNMP/syslog) and modern (gNMI, OTLP) protocols for cloud-native environments.

We built ServiceRadar to simplify monitoring hybrid telecom networks, evolving it into a Kubernetes-native solution with Helm and Docker support. It uses mTLS with SPIFFE/SPIRE, NATS JetStream for event streaming (90M+ EPS), and SRQL for intuitive queries. Integrated with OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, and CloudEvents, it fills the network visibility gap in CNCF’s application-focused observability stack.

We’re seeking early adopters to try our demo or deploy locally—no sign-up needed. Feedback on usability or contributions for new protocols would be awesome.

Quick Start: helm install serviceradar carverauto/serviceradar or docker compose up -d

Is the demo site broken? It says "0.0% Availability" and "No critical events - All systems reporting normally"

We're in the process of moving to a new cluster, should be back to normal shortly

credentials for demo site have been updated in README.md
