Keynote: Cloud Native Superpowers with eBPF by Liz Rice
Channel: CNCF [Cloud Native Computing Foundation]
Date: 2022-07-30

eBPF has been called “Superpowers for Linux”, and in this talk Liz discusses why it’s a foundational technology for a new generation of cloud native networking, security and observability tools. The questions this talk answers include: (i) What is eBPF? (ii) How does eBPF enable the instrumentation of applications, without having to modify applications or their configuration in any way? (iii) What can we do with eBPF in the cloud today? Even if you’re not a Linux kernel aficionado you’ll leave this talk with an understanding of how eBPF enables high-performance tools that will help you connect, manage and secure applications in the cloud.
