Oct 24, 11:00 PM – Oct 25, 1:00 AM (UTC)
We have special guest Jonathan Perry from OpenTelemetry project. His PhD research at MIT CSAIL focused on performance isolation in datacenter and cloud networks, aiming to enhance network efficiency and reduce latency. Jonathan founded Flowmill, where he developed eBPF-based network monitoring tools prior to the company's acquisition by Splunk. He is based in Austin, Texas.
We will be meeting at Capital Factory! The address is 701 Brazos St, Austin, TX 78701. Probably we'll be in the "Antone's Room" on the 16th Floor.
Park in the Onmi garage for just $8.00! Street parking will still be an option. More information on parking here: https://www.capitalfactory.com/parking/

Strategies for Mitigating Performance Interference in Cloud-Native Systems by Jonathan Perry
In cloud-native environments, application performance often degrades due to contention over shared resources such as CPU caches and memory bandwidth. Current container technologies lack mechanisms to isolate these resources, which compels operators to maintain low utilization by scaling out their deployments.
This session explores strategies used by hyperscalers like Google, Microsoft, Facebook, and Alibaba to mitigate such performance interference. We will review their published methodologies, extracting key principles that could guide the development of a Kubernetes-native performance isolator. Participants will gain insights into the design trade-offs and operational impacts of these tools. Additionally, we will discuss integration strategies for deploying such isolators in existing Kubernetes environments, aiming to optimize resource utilization while preserving application performance.
