About:
swctl is the official command-line interface for Apache SkyWalking, an open-source application performance monitoring system. It provides a powerful way to interact with SkyWalking OAP servers, allowing users to query metrics, manage configurations, and troubleshoot distributed systems directly from the terminal. Its main value is enabling efficient, scriptable observability workflows for developers and SREs.
Key Features:
  • Query and visualize application performance metrics
  • Manage SkyWalking OAP server configurations
  • Execute health checks and troubleshoot distributed traces
  • Support for scripting and automation via CLI
Use Cases:
  • Real-time performance monitoring and alerting for microservices
  • Automated health checks and incident response in CI/CD pipelines
  • Debugging distributed transactions and latency issues in production
Alternatives:
  • grafana-cli – Focuses on managing Grafana dashboards, not a general APM CLI like swctl
  • jaeger-cli – Specialized for Jaeger tracing, whereas swctl is for the broader SkyWalking APM ecosystem
