This talk offers a gentle and practical introduction to eBPF as a powerful framework for Linux and network observability. We’ll walk through real scenarios—like tracing incoming packets, measuring syscall latency, and visualizing kernel behavior using tools like bpftrace and bcc.

While often seen as advanced, eBPF is surprisingly accessible. You don’t need deep kernel knowledge or C programming skills to start using it. Whether you're a developer, sysadmin, or just curious about how Linux works under the hood, this talk shows how eBPF can make observability approachable and even fun.

We'll focus on how eBPF helps answer complex performance and debugging questions in a modern, efficient, and safe way—turning opaque system behavior into actionable insights using just the command line and some well-crafted trace scripts.
