Lennart Poettering (https://github.com/poettering), creater of PulseAudio, Avahi & systemd, has a new project he’d like to introduce to the world, casync. Lennart will give the first public presentation of casync, a tool for efficient image synchronization for iot, containers, VMs and backups.
Opening the evening, we’ll have Kinvolk (https://twitter.com/kinvolkio) CTO Alban Crequy (https://github.com/alban) give an introduction to eBPF, a tool that lends “superpowers” to Linux. eBPF programs are loaded into the kernel and attached to kernel objects where they are executed when events occur, making it useful for monitoring, security analysis, and networking. Alban will explain, and demonstrate, how this works.
