Kubernetes Observability And Troubleshooting With groundcover and eBPF
Observability in Kubernetes is complicated. We might need to combine many tools to get the information we need. In this video, we will take a look at groundcover, a new tool that combines observability tools into a single solution backed by eBPF and with a unique Web UI.

What do we do when we find an issue in production? Fix it? How about generating a post-mortem report while fixing it?
That’s what Fiberplane is all about. In this video, I’ll show you how to use Fiberplane to generate postmortem documents about incidents in production Kubernetes clusters.

How to set up and observe distributed tracing with Jaeger and OpenTelemetry in Kubernetes?
Continue readingYou MUST Instrument Your Code With OpenTelemetry!
If we want to gain insights into application behavior, we MUST instrument our code. However, instrumenting code can take time and effort and so we better do it in a way that avoids being locked into any specific tool. That’s where OpenTelemetry comes in with its instrumentation standard, independent of the tools where logs, metrics, and traces are collected.
