eCHO news in 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 finally recovering from KubeCon EU and wow what an amazing event it was! The interest in Cilium and eBPF was off the charts and I'm even more excited for the community now. There was never a dull moment at the Cilium booth and I got to catch up with so many great people around the community. If I missed talking with you, you can always feel free to book a slot in my calendly. I love to meet and connect with new people :)

 

Besides KubeCon, this week brings us open sourcing Tetragon as a part of Cilium for security observability, XDP coming to Windows to speed up the datapath, and a service mesh tech talk. Let's 🐝 gin!

The Technical

Tetragon - eBPF-based Security Observability & Runtime Enforcement

Cilium now includes eBPF based security with the open sourcing of Tetragon! Besides already reaching the 1k stars on Github, it also has my favorite logo in the cloud native ecosystem
