Bridging Technology and Everyday Life

Hosts Tom Wilkie and Matt Toback sit down with guests Liz Rice from Isovalent and Mario Macías from Grafana Labs to explore how eBPF is revolutionizing observability, networking, and security in modern infrastructure. They cover what eBPF is (hint: it's no longer just about packet filtering!), the performance advantages of eBPF-based instrumentation compared to traditional methods, what's in store for the future of eBPF, and so much more. Liz and Mario also share their firsthand experiences developing widely-adopted eBPF tools like Cilium, Tetragon, and Grafana Beyla, offering practical insights into how these technologies are transforming observability (and making it awesome!).
