I was not familiar with this project. In looking at the architecture[1] documentation it indicates it uses the Pixie Cloud. Is is possible to use this without the Pixie cloud?

Co-founder/CEO of Pixie here.

In the current form Pixie Cloud is required since it's a freemium product.

We are planning to open-source a self-managed version of Pixie early next year, and it can be used completely self-hosted.

Thanks, I will be looking forward to this announcement as the current requirement would prevent me from using it. Cheers.
