Lucas and Luna dive into Linux control groups (cgroups) — the kernel feature that underlies container resource limits, systemd service isolation, and cloud cost optimization. They trace cgroups from Google engineer Paul Menage's 2006 patch to today's v2 unified hierarchy, using Netflix's 2024 migration to cgroupsv2 as a case study. You'll learn how cgroups prevent noisy-neighbor problems in shared servers, why CPU and memory cgroups work differently than I/O cgroups, and how a single misconfigured cgroup can silently waste $50,000 a month in cloud spend. Essential for anyone running containers, multi-tenant systems, or Linux servers in production.
