Zero-code application observability with Grafana Beyla and eBPF: demo
The eBPF-based OSS auto-instrumentation tool Grafana Beyla makes it easier to get started with application observability. Beyla provides RED (Rate, Errors, Duration) metrics through OpenTelemetry or Prometheus for your existing web services, whichever language they are written in. You don’t need to change any line of application code or configuration; you only need to deploy the Beyla in the same host as the service that you want to monitor. Collecting monitoring data with the eBPF autoinstrument tool has very low overhead, and allows you to capture data about your runtime, which is impossible with manual code instrumentation. Watch this in-depth demo of how to use Grafana Beyla to get started with application observability.
