The talk discusses the use of eBPF in the cloud native ecosystem, its portability through the CO:RE initiative, and its combination with Go and Kubernetes for observability, security, and performance tuning.
- eBPF allows running programs in kernel space and attaching them to events or hooks for observability, security, and networking
- The CO:RE initiative aims to achieve portability through libbpf, a just-in-time compiler that transforms eBPF bytecode into executable code on the host
- eBPF can be combined with Go and Kubernetes to bridge low-level kernel features to higher-level Kubernetes concepts like Pods
- Real-life examples are shown to help measure and improve performance systematically
