Ryan, and the rest of the Pyroscope team, joined Grafana Labs, where he is now a Director of Engineer. Ryan discusses the main concerns in continuous profiling and how to avoid those pitfalls. Pyroscope is an open-source project for aggregating continuous profiling data about your system&rsquo;s resources.</p> <div style="position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0; overflow: hidden;"> <iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share; fullscreen" loading="eager" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/pzNRvMQzrJ0?autoplay=0&amp;controls=1&amp;end=0&amp;loop=0&amp;mute=0&amp;start=0" style="position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; border:0;" title="YouTube video"></iframe> </div> <h2 id="links">Links</h2> <ul> <li>Pyroscope <a href="https://grafana.com/docs/pyroscope/">docs</a></li> <li>Pyroscope <a href="https://pyroscope.io/">site</a></li> <li>Pyroscope <a href="https://github.com/grafana/pyroscope">repo</a></li> <li>Weigh in on the <a href="https://github.com/open-telemetry/oteps/pull/239">OpenTelemetry Profiling Data Model</a></li> </ul>https://nicolevanderhoeven.com/blog/20240109-how-to-deploy-grafana-beyla-on-kubernetes-as-a-sidecar-container/Tue, 09 Jan 2024 13:41:38 +0100https://nicolevanderhoeven.com/blog/20240109-how-to-deploy-grafana-beyla-on-kubernetes-as-a-sidecar-container/<p>Principal Staff Engineer Nikola Grčevski demonstrates how to deploy Grafana Beyla on Kubernetes as a sidecar container. Grafana Beyla is an eBPF auto-instrumentation tool for application observability: you just have to tell it what to listen to, give it permissions, and deploy it&ndash; and you can see metrics and logs from that component or service without having to do any manual instrumentation.</p> <div style="position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0; overflow: hidden;"> <iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share; fullscreen" loading="eager" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/d7clTdz0bA4?autoplay=0&amp;controls=1&amp;end=0&amp;loop=0&amp;mute=0&amp;start=0" style="position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; border:0;" title="YouTube video"></iframe> </div> <h2 id="links">Links</h2> <ul> <li><a href="https://grafana.com/docs/beyla/latest/setup/kubernetes/">Instructions for deploying Grafana Beyla on Kubernetes</a></li> <li><a href="https://github.com/grafana/beyla">Grafana Beyla on GitHub</a></li> </ul>https://nicolevanderhoeven.com/blog/20240105-goh25-introduction-to-ebpf-with-grafana-beyla/Fri, 05 Jan 2024 18:03:52 +0100https://nicolevanderhoeven.com/blog/20240105-goh25-introduction-to-ebpf-with-grafana-beyla/<p>Nikola Grčevski, Principal Software Engineer at Grafana Labs, gives us an introduction to eBPF with Grafana Beyla. We discuss what is eBPF, how you can use it to auto-instrument applications, and how to get started with Beyla. eBPF observability is all the rage because we all want automagical instrumentation&ndash; but does it live up to that promise? Nikola&rsquo;s here to tell us what eBPF can and can&rsquo;t do, and where he&rsquo;d like to take Beyla next.</p> <div style="position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0; overflow: hidden;"> <iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share; fullscreen" loading="eager" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ZEUzucqXUnQ?autoplay=0&amp;controls=1&amp;end=0&amp;loop=0&amp;mute=0&amp;start=0" style="position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; border:0;" title="YouTube video"></iframe> </div> <h2 id="links">Links</h2> <ul> <li><a href="https://github.com/grafana/beyla">Grafana Beyla repo</a></li> <li><a href="https://grafana.com/docs/grafana-cloud/monitor-applications/beyla/">Grafana Beyla docs</a></li> <li><a href="https://grafana.com/docs/grafana-cloud/monitor-applications/application-observability/">Application Observability docs</a></li> </ul>https://nicolevanderhoeven.com/blog/20220812-koh59-observability-trends-and-future-best-practices/Fri, 12 Aug 2022 16:19:13 +0100https://nicolevanderhoeven.com/blog/20220812-koh59-observability-trends-and-future-best-practices/<p>What are some observability trends and best practices in 2022 and going forward? Technical Program Manager Daniel González Lopes joins Developer Advocates Nicole van der Hoeven and Paul Balogh to chat about trending concepts and new areas of exploration in the field of observability.
