Description

Currently, we are collecting pcap data, but we are not saving it anywhere. It may need to be saved to a separate bucket, similar to file writes

Research direction

Start by locating the code that collects pcap data and the existing file-write storage path. Compare how that path selects its bucket and determine the intended destination for raw pcap data. Done means captured pcap data is persistently written to the agreed separate bucket, with coverage for the new storage behavior.
