Observing Fastly’s Network at Scale Thanks to K8s and the Stri...
summary
Fastly describes Autopilot: a telemetry pipeline that ingests sFlow/NetFlow over DTLS from many PoPs, enriches with pmrt and Prometheus metrics, buffers in Kafka using the Strimzi Kafka operator, and exposes an in‑memory gRPC API driving routing changes. It processes hundreds of thousands of packets per second, runs on the internal Elevation Kubernetes platform with Helm, FluxCD, Harbor and Vault, solved UDP blackholing and AWS security‑rule limits with a Calico global policy plus a small garbage‑collector controller, and reached production across ~20 clusters after a four‑week nonprod rollout.
