pyroscope
A Grafana skill for continuous profiling with Grafana Pyroscope and reading results as flame graphs.
What the skill teaches
A Grafana skill for continuous profiling with Grafana Pyroscope and reading results as flame graphs. It explains three ways to get profiles in: pushing from a language SDK (Go, Java, Python, Ruby, Node, .NET or Rust), eBPF auto-instrumentation through Grafana Alloy with no code changes on Linux kernels 5.8 or newer with BTF, or SDKs sending to an Alloy receiver. It walks through a Python example, cluster-wide eBPF profiling, querying with ProfileQL, profile types, the Grafana Cloud Profiles endpoint and linking traces to profiles, plus troubleshooting.
Capabilities
- Instrument an application with a Pyroscope SDK
- Deploy Alloy for eBPF profiling across a cluster
- Query profiles with ProfileQL
- Link traces to profiles
