#P99CONF once again brings a stacked lineup of eBPF talks 🔥 This year, speakers are diving into thread-level o11y, concurrency testing, and building reliable and perf. eBPF tooling Don’t miss how we’re bringing a reliability-first mindset to OTel from our very own @ddelnano 👇
eBPF can be used for latency analysis, high performance networking, noisy neighbor detection, & K8s observability. We look at past and upcoming #P99CONF sessions from @jrfernandez, Liz Rice, @tanelpoder, @andy_pavlo, @parttimen3rd, & @ddelnano. ow.ly/opzi50X52qY #ScyllaDB

eBPF has always been a popular topic at #P99CONF. On October 22-23, we'll welcome @TanelPoder, @DDelnano, Jake Hillion, and @parttimen3rd to share what's next for observability and #eBPF. Don't miss these interactive sessions! ow.ly/NpUk50WRh65 #ScyllaDB

At @P99CONF, @ddelnano will share how to leverage pprof directly in their application, design patterns for memory-lean and correct Uprobe instrumentation and how to balance reliability and efficiency instead of choosing between them. ow.ly/WoBn50WrUgw #ScyllaDB #P99CONF

Check out @ddelnano's Pixie hacking videos to see the latest Pixie developments as they happen! This first video walks through the major code change from the recent v0.14.15 Vizier release!
I'm starting a series of "Pixie hacking" videos to show off ongoing @pixie_run development. The first of these is out today and walks through a query engine fix to prevent missing spans from certain short lived processes! Video link in the reply

As seen from the @OpenAI incident last month, querying metadata at scale can introduce reliability risks. Learn how Pixie was carefully designed to scale access to Kubernetes metadata.

My favorite monitoring (for k8s) tool is now @pixie_run! look at how it analysed my jvm app, giving me clear indication of how the cpu is being used! All of that out of the box. Brilliant stuff to catch hot spots and performance bottlenecks

Did you know that #eBPF 🐝 can be used to automatically inspect Cassandra requests in your Kubernetes cluster? Join @ddelnano at this month's @cassandra town hall to see a demo of this magic!✨
The second Town Hall for #ApacheCassandra® users will focus on “Monitoring Cassandra without Instrumentation.” Join us Thurs., May 25 at 8am PT meetup.com/cassandra-global/… A great way to learn from #ApacheCassandra end users and engineers. #OpenSource #NoSQL #Database #Performance

Replying to @BettyJunod
Networking is not the only use case for eBPF. It is indeed the most talked about one though. Other tools are being build using eBPF in the security and observability space. @pixie_run is a good example.

#eBPF is the future of #o11y. But capturing data at the network layer (instead of the app layer) may expose more PII. Enter Privy -> a new public PII dataset. See how it compares to existing PII classifiers & how it can be used to redact PII in Pixie. blog.px.dev/detect-pii/
