It helps reduce log volume while still preserving the crucial information. It streamlines your data, filters out the irrelevant bits, and zeroes in on key data points, helping manage storage and keep costs under control.

XDP, or eXpress Data Path, is a Linux networking feature that enables you to create high-performance packet-processing programs that run in the kernel. Introduced in Linux 4.8 and built on extended Berkeley Packet Filter (eBPF), XDP provides a mechanism to process network packets earlier and faster than is possible through the kernel’s native network stack. In this post, we’ll discuss.

At Upsun, we run containers. Lots and lots of containers. On hundreds of virtual machines rented from various IaaS providers. These containers run your software. They also team up with other containers that run other software that your software depends upon (such as databases or caches). This is naturally an extremely complex system, and today we'll take a look at how we wire (most of) it up.
