How eBPF is evolving container networking
Bill Doerrfeld | March 3, 2025
My latest
feature on InfoWorld explores how eBPF is disrupting the status quo for container networking.
Is eBPF the future of container networking? It's certainly shaking things up...
Containers are designed to be isolated—that's great for security but tricky for networking. eBPF is rewriting the rules, working at the kernel-level, and optimizing performance by cutting out the heavy network stack.
As Liz Rice, Chief Open Source Officer at Isovalent, told me, "With eBPF, we can bypass parts of these superfluous networking stacks."
For my latest InfoWorld feature, I spoke with top minds in the space about how eBPF is transforming container networking, who's adopting it, what challenges remain, and where else eBPF is making an impact.
Huge thanks to everyone who contributed their insights.

New research shows LLMs outperform humans in software requirements engineering, reducing weeks of work to seconds while improving completeness by 10.2%.
I recently synced with Camden Swita, Head of AI and ML Innovation at New Relic, to see how software engineers are implementing agentic AI in practice.
The 2nd annual code quality report from GitClear found 10x more duplicated code than two years ago and fewer signs of code reuse than ever before.
My feature on InfoWorld explores the state of Kubernetes usability, highlighting various advancements across workload types, support for edge and AI, and new features like observability and security.
It's up to leadership to help prioritize large-scale engineering updates that keep software running smoothly. Kent Wills, Director of Engineering at Yelp, provides insight on the latest DirectorPlus.
Italian for “tapestry,” Arazzo is aptly named since it can be used to weave together sequences of API calls to illustrate a specific business pattern.
I caught up with CTO Itiel Shwartz about leveraging finely tuned models like Komodor’s KlaudiaAI agent for ultra-specific DevOps challenges, like Kubernetes error diagnosis and remediation challenges.
Rolling out AI is all about framing it in a positive light, says GitLab's CTO, Sabrina Farmer. I interviewed her for the latest edition of DirectorPlus for LeadDev, which is out today.
