Problem to solve

Currently we do not collect any usage ping data on Cilium usage. We need to collect some telemetry so we can start reporting and measuring usage of this feature. This data will also support our North Star metric for Container Security which is the total number of network packets processed.

Further details

Proposal

The following data will be collected as part of the usage ping:

• The total number of packets that Cilium has analyzed across all environments
• The total number of packets that Cilium has analyzed and found to be anomalous across all environments
• The number of environments where Cilium is installed
• The number of environments where Cilium is not installed

What does success look like, and how can we measure that?

What is the type of buyer?

Is this a cross-stage feature?
