Pixie's eBPF Protocol Tracer

Explore Pixie's eBPF Protocol Tracer in this 45-minute conference talk presented at the Linux Plumbers Conference. Gain insights into the innovative technology behind Pixie's protocol tracing capabilities, which leverage extended Berkeley Packet Filter (eBPF) to provide powerful observability tools for modern distributed systems. Learn how this approach enables real-time, low-overhead monitoring and debugging of network protocols in complex environments. The speakers, including Omid Azizi, Yaxiong Zhao, Ryan Cheng, John P Stevenson, and Zain Asgar, share their expertise on implementing and optimizing eBPF-based tracing solutions for enhanced system visibility and performance analysis.
