Apache Cassandra Town Hall #2: Monitoring Cassandra without instrumentation
Details
After a great inaugural meetup, we're excited to host the second town hall for Apache Cassandra® users! This monthly series provides a place for end users to talk about their use of Cassandra, for the Cassandra engineering community to share project and release updates, and for you to meet others and stay up-to-date on community activities. Town halls occur at 8am PT on the fourth Thursday of every month.
Submit your use case/case study via this form if you would like to share it with the community.
**AGENDA**
Monitoring Cassandra without instrumentation using eBPF
Presented by Dom Del Nano, Pixie
Imagine a world where you can access metrics and full-body traces in seconds, without changing your code. In this session, you will learn about eBPF, a powerful Linux kernel technology that is fundamentally changing the fields of observability, networking and security. This session will include a live demo showing eBPF monitoring of Cassandra using only open source projects. We’ll show how to use Pixie, a eBPF-based Kubernetes observability tool, to to quickly identify services and pods that send and receive Cassandra requests, inspect individual requests and responses, and calculate request latency, error rate, and throughput. If you want to know what’s next in Cassandra observability, this session is for you!
