The blog article is a bit more descriptive : https://sysdig.com/blog/stratoshark-extending-wiresharks-leg...

tl;dr version: system calls, but in the wireshark ui. (I've probably oversimplified that!)

Thanks for your work! Been using Wireshark for many years after it was used for a network course in university.

Why do you focus on "what happens in your cloud" when we talk about system calls? It'd seem it's useful for any machine, is it just bad marketing copy or am I missing something?

    You're welcome! It was initially developed as part of my day job at Sysdig, a cloud security company. The initial feature set and use cases focus on getting .scaps (system call and log captures) from cloud environments, but you're entirely correct -- this has much more general applications including troubleshooting and education just like Wireshark does on the networking side.
