> eBPF-based Network Observability for CloudStack
> -----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: GSOC-292
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GSOC-292
> Project: Comdev GSOC
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Daan
> Priority: Major
> Labels: CloudStack, gsoc, gsoc2025, mentor, part-time
>
> CloudStack’s network monitoring is mostly based on logs and external agents,
> making real-time traffic analysis difficult. This project will integrate
> *eBPF-based network observability* to capture per-VM traffic metrics, detect
> anomalies, and improve tenant isolation.
> h2. Benefits to CloudStack
> * {*}Enhanced security{*}: Detect suspicious activity at the kernel level.
> * {*}Real-time traffic monitoring{*}: Gain deep insights into VM networking.
> * {*}Better tenant isolation{*}: Identify cross-tenant traffic issues.
> h2. Deliverables
> * Develop eBPF probes to capture:
> ** Per-VM network traffic metrics (packets, bytes, latency)
> ** Connection tracking for detecting unauthorized access patterns
> ** Packet drops and retransmission rates
> * Expose network metrics via CloudStack’s API.
> * Provide visualization through Prometheus/Grafana.
> * Document setup, usage, and performance benchmarks.
> h2. Expected Outcome
> An eBPF-based solution that improves network observability in CloudStack,
> providing security and performance insights with minimal resource usage.
