I'm Ramesh Sahoo, a Principal Software Engineer at Red Hat, I’ve spent 15 years evolving with the tech stack, from early virtualization to high-scale OpenShift and Kubernetes. I’m a production-hardened specialist in infrastructure automation and deep-dive troubleshooting. My mission is to tear down the silos between networking and containers, using Python and Go to build seamless, high-performance cloud-native solutions that actually scale.
Session
Ever felt like finding a network issue in Kubernetes is like looking for a needle in a burning haystack? As microservices scale dynamically across nodes, traditional tools like tcpdump simply don't cut it anymore. Enter the OpenShift Network Observability Operator.
Powered by the magic of eBPF (Extended Berkeley Packet Filter), it provides deep, low-overhead, real-time visibility into your cluster's network traffic—without touching a single line of application code. In this talk, we’ll dive into how the operator translates raw kernel data into actionable insights. We’ll explore the architecture, explain why eBPF is the ultimate superpower for K8s networking, and share real-world customer success stories.
The session culminates in a live, high-stakes troubleshooting demo: we will purposefully break a microservice architecture and use the operator to diagnose complex communication failures and dropped packets in real-time. Walk away ready to master your cluster's network.
