-------------------------
Summary: Enhancing CloudStack Monitoring with eBPF
Key: GSOC-291
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GSOC-291
Project: Comdev GSOC
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Daan
Apache CloudStack currently relies on traditional monitoring tools, which may
lack deep visibility into kernel-level events and networking performance. This
project aims to integrate *eBPF-based monitoring* into CloudStack to provide
lightweight, real-time performance analysis and security auditing.
h2. Benefits to CloudStack
* {*}Improved observability{*}: Gain fine-grained insights into VM performance
metrics.
* {*}Lower overhead{*}: eBPF runs in the kernel and avoids the performance
penalties of user-space monitoring tools.
* {*}Enhanced security auditing{*}: Detect and log anomalies in system
behavior.
h2. Deliverables
* Implement eBPF programs to track:
** VM CPU usage
** Memory consumption
** Disk I/O metrics
** Network traffic analysis
* Develop a CloudStack-compatible API or CLI for retrieving eBPF-generated
insights.
* Provide visualization support using Prometheus/Grafana.
* Write documentation for setup and usage.
h2. Expected Outcome
A robust eBPF-based monitoring solution integrated into CloudStack, offering
real-time performance insights with minimal overhead.
