New Relic eBPF Expands Kernel-Level Observability
Blog post from New Relic
New Relic has expanded its eBPF-based monitoring capabilities to provide full-stack observability across Kubernetes, hosts, and networks, allowing platform engineers, SREs, and DevOps teams to correlate application performance with underlying system and network behavior. This evolution from its original eAPM for Kubernetes simplifies root cause analysis by offering real-time insights into TCP and DNS activity at the kernel level without requiring code changes or manual instrumentation. By integrating into the New Relic Intelligent Observability Platform, users can leverage AI-powered insights and OpenTelemetry-based instrumentation to improve cost efficiency and reduce operational complexity. This comprehensive approach enables teams to swiftly identify performance bottlenecks across distributed systems, enhancing their ability to manage modern environments effectively.
