cgroups:Containers = eBPF:Cloud Native

cgroups and namespaces were foundational kernel concepts that sparked the container revolution, shaping the cloud native landscape we see today.

I'm seeing eBPF as the next pivotal kernel technology that is driving a paradigm shift in infrastructure software and redefining the cloud native ecosystem.

eBPF is modernizing the kernel by allowing us to rewrite and/or remove abstracts and create fundamentally better building blocks.

For example, it's making container networking as efficient as host networking with netkit, boosting application performance by enabling custom process schedulers, and allowing for dynamic security policies at runtime without the need for agents.

These capabilities are transforming infrastructure through programmable, code-driven designs.

For the next generation of technology, rather than standardizing through committees, we are standardizing through code with eBPF on the leading edge of that

Just as cgroups and namespaces standardized resource control, eBPF is creating new standards for interacting with the kernel, further cementing the kernel's role as the engine of innovation. Do you see eBPF as important as cgroups and namespaces?

Yes. In my article I wrote:
