Ddosify automatically generates a Service Map of your K8s cluster without code instrumentation or sidecars. So you can easily find the bottlenecks in your system. Red lines indicate the high latency between services.

If you need a web-based user interface with **Performance Testing**, and **Kubernetes Monitoring** capabilities and want to maintain it on your own, Ddosify Self-hosted is the right choice for you. Check out the [Ddosify Self-hosted](https://github.com/ddosify/ddosify/tree/master/selfhosted) guide for reference. You can also deploy Ddosify Self-hosted on [AWS Marketplace](https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/prodview-mwvnujtgjedjy). ### 🚀 Ddosify Engine

With Ddosify Engine you can simulate and load test your endpoints on your terminal without writing code.

If you need CLI-based load testing tool, [Ddosify Engine](https://github.com/ddosify/ddosify/tree/master/engine_docs) is an open-source and high-performance load testing tool, written in Golang. Check out the [Ddosify Engine Installation](https://github.com/ddosify/ddosify/tree/master/engine_docs#installation) guide for reference. ### 🐝 Ddosify eBPF Agent (Alaz) If you use Kubernetes Monitoring either on Ddosify Cloud or Ddosify Self-hosted, the Ddosify eBPF Agent (Alaz) must be installed as a Daemonset on your Kubernetes cluster. The system resources are limited to 1 CPU core and 1Gi Memory per K8s node, so it it very lightweight. Check out the [Alaz GitHub](https://github.com/ddosify/alaz) repository for reference. ### ☁️ Ddosify Cloud If you need a complete SaaS solution for Performance Testing **worldwide** and Kubernetes Monitoring and do not want to manage the services, Ddosify Cloud is the right choice. Check out the [Ddosify Cloud](https://app.ddosify.com/) guide for reference. {% hint style="success" %} If you require assistance with deploying Ddosify, you can join our [Discord](https://discord.com/invite/9KdnrSUZQg) or send an email to . {% endhint %} --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.
