Auto-instrumentation of Prometheus for RED Monitoring with eBPF

CNCF [Cloud Native Computing Foundation] via YouTube

Overview

Explore auto-instrumentation techniques for Prometheus RED monitoring using eBPF in this 33-minute conference talk from KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe 2022. Discover how to implement uniform monitoring views for heterogeneous workloads without manual instrumentation. Learn about the RED (Rate, Errors, Duration) monitoring pattern and its challenges in diverse environments. Delve into eBPF technology and its application in Linux kernel for safe and efficient code execution. Understand the benefits and tradeoffs of auto-instrumentation compared to traditional methods and service meshes. Watch a live demonstration showcasing open-source solutions for implementing eBPF-based Prometheus metrics in Golang. Gain insights into the feasibility and practical applications of this approach for streamlining monitoring in complex, multi-language environments.
