DevOps and Docker Talk: Cloud Native Interviews and Tooling

Observability Cost-Savings and eBPF Goodness with Groundcover


Listen Later

Bret is joined by Shahar Azulay, Groundcover CEO and Co-Founder, to discuss their new approach to fully observe K8s and its workloads with a "hybrid observability architecture."
Groundcover is a new, cloud-native, eBPF-based platform that designed a new model for how observability solutions are architected and priced. It is a product that can drastically reduce your monitoring, logging, and tracing costs and complexity, it stores all its data in your clusters and only needs one agent per host for full observability and APM.

We dig into the deployment, architecture, and how it all works under the hood.

Watch the video version on YouTube. Includes demos.
