Loading...Introduction to eBPF-based Service Mesh Observability
When I first started working with service meshes, I realized that observability was a critical component. However, most solutions fell short in providing the level of detail we needed. That's when I discovered the power of eBPF-based observability with Cilium 1.12 and Hubble 1.5. In this article, I'll share my experience implementing this solution and the benefits it brought to our team.
The Problem with Traditional Observability Tools
Traditional observability tools often rely on sampling or logging, which can lead to incomplete data and increased latency. With eBPF, we can tap into the kernel itself, providing unparalleled visibility into network traffic. But, as I soon discovered, implementing eBPF-based observability is not without its challenges.
My First Attempt with Cilium 1.12
My first attempt at implementing eBPF-based observability was with Cilium 1.12. I was excited to try out the new features, but I quickly ran into issues with compatibility and configuration.
