nr-ebpf-agent-0.1.11

A Helm chart to monitor applications deployed in a Kubernetes Cluster using the New Relic eBPF agent.

What's Changed

• Added a number of drop-data controls so that eBPF can report telemetry data that is useful to users. These controls include:

  • Dropping data that cannot be mapped to a service name.
  • Dropping data in the newrelic namespace .
  • Dropping data in the kube-system namespace.
  • Additionally, users can drop data by defining a Regular Expression to match service names. Refer to Kubernetes docs for a description of K8s service.

• Enhanced span sampling that is governed by latency threshold so that users have control on what spans to retain. This can be tuned based on protocol (e.g. HTTP), and the granularity is defined at p1 / p10 / p50 / p90 / p99 levels.

Notes for upgrading

If you are using a previous version of NR eBPF helm chart, please uninstall it first before installing the latest version.
