Abstract

Microsoft .NET is now open source with .NET Core and allows anyone to write applications that run on Linux. The .NET runtime provides traces via LTTng to let you analyze how your applications behave on top of the CLR.

Follow our journey, as windows experts with no former LTTng knowledge, to plug a custom CTF viewer into the live-mode LTTng pipeline and deploy it to Mesos. We will share our architecture choices, protocol understanding… and the complexity/performance pitfalls we faced.

Audience

  • frustrated .NET developers moving to Linux
  • frustrated Linux developer moving to .NET Core
  • any developer interested in integrating into the LTTng pipeline
