eCHO news is your bi-weekly wrap up of all things eBPF and Cilium. If you want to keep up on the latest in cloud native networking, observability, and security this is your quelle

I'm in Zurich this week for KCD Zurich where I'll be talking about eBPF and how people are going to want product with eBPF Inside™ not always because they know what it is, but because of what it enables.
That isn't actually the main reason why I'm here this week. We are currently working on two very exciting projects for the eBPF ecosystem that will be launched at KubeCon NA in Chicago. I'm going to keep them both under wraps for now and no they both don't involve any code, but I think they will help bring eBPF to the masses and achieve the vision of eBPF Inside™. I also still have to write my talk so let's 🐝 gin!
"This project is aimed to help debug large eBPF verifier error logs. This simple utility allows to post-process eBPF verifier log to a human-readable HTML page"
Hubble is not the best known part of Cilium, but I find that it is often user's favorite once they start using it because of the visibility it gives them into the complex world of K8s networking
"Cilium enables users to consolidate the number of cloud-native networking and security tools they have" I think this is key to the growth to the project
"Our experimental results demonstrate the technical feasibility of eBPF to achieve highly performant monitoring, observability, and security tooling for mobile networks"
As always, if you’ve seen a blog post, a tool, or anything else eBPF or Cilium related that you think the rest of the community should hear about, send them my way. You can either hit reply or join the #echo-news channel on Cilium Slack. You can also find all of the past episodes on the website.
