Some key differences [1]
> ply, by Tobais Waldekranz, is another front-end to BPF. I like it. It isn't complete yet, but has some interesting differences to bpftrace: ply emits instructions directly, whereas bpftrace uses llvm's IR API (which can be fairly difficult to code in). ply is also C, whereas bpftrace is C++.
> It's possible that ply will find its users on embedded Linux and minimal environments, whereas bpftrace will be popular for large server Linux.
