I've been on and off playing with the same scripts described in this article for the last few months (installable as bcc-tools under Fedora). While some of them are a little unstable or need a bit of Python version handholding in fc34, I've been blown away with the data I've been able to get with seemingly negligible overhead. I was also really surprised to find them in the default repos, and how relatively few people reference them when discussing other eBPF tooling (e.g. Pixie).
As someone who has been building observability software for the last few years I'm ridiculously excited about eBPF. Looking forward to seeing what the Netflix dashboards mentioned in the post look like & the data pipelines that support them.
