What happened and what to do

On March 28, 2026, the eBPF site published an introduction to technology that lets sandboxed programs run in the Linux kernel without changing its source code or loading a module. The site also offers tutorials and community resources for people learning about the subject.

For a company, the opportunity is to assess whether eBPF programs could address specific observability or security needs in its Linux systems. Initial work can map the environment and requirements, define what to monitor, and implement data collection with access controls, validation, and dashboards for tracking the data.

How the consultancy can help

Wendelmaques can diagnose the need, assess the Linux environment, and scope the design and implementation of eBPF collection and monitoring, including controls and operation of the solution.
