Zero to Performance Hero: How to Benchmark and Profile Your eBPF Code in Rust
In this article, we will walk through creating a basic eBPF program in Rust. We will intentionally include a performance regression and then use profilers to locate and fix the bug. We will also create benchmarks and track them using a continuous benchmarking tool for CI.

Debugging Production: eBPF Chaos
This article shares insights into learning eBPF as a new cloud-native technology which aims to improve Observability and Security workflows. You’ll learn how chaos engineering can help, and get an insight into eBPF based observability and security use cases. Breaking them in a professional way also inspires new ideas for chaos engineering itself.

eBPF and the Service Mesh: Don't Dismiss the Sidecar Yet
While eBPF looks promising to improve service mesh sidecar proxy performance, there are other, simplier ways to improve performance. The layer 7 processing needed for service meshes is unlikely to be feasible in eBPF for the foreseeable future, which means that meshes will still need proxies.
