There's an arms race to add eBPF (BPF) to commercial observability products, and in this post I'll describe how to quickly do that. People like to show me their BPF observability products after they have prototyped or built them, but I often wish I had given them advice before they started. You might not even like BPF.

It's an exciting time for developments in computer performance, not just for the BPF technology (which I often [write about]) but also for processors with 3D stacking and cloud vendor CPUs (e.g., In case you are interested, at the same conference I also gave a talk on [BPF Internals].
