eBPF for platform teams: Observability without sidecars

Platform teams often rely on sidecars for observability, adding latency and operational overhead. eBPF provides a powerful alternative by enabling deep system and network visibility directly at the kernel level. This talk explains how eBPF changes observability and security in Kubernetes environments and why it matters for platform engineering. It explores real use cases, performance considerations, and how teams can adopt eBPF-based tooling without disrupting workloads. Attendees will gain a practical understanding of where eBPF fits in modern platform stacks.
