Noisy Neighbors Through Networking: Managing Resource Contention in Multi-tenant Environments

Explore a 30-minute conference talk from SREcon24 Europe/Middle East/Africa where Reddit engineers René Treffer and Ben Kochie delve into the challenges of managing "noisy neighbors" in multi-tenant environments like Kubernetes. Learn about unexpected instances of resource contention affecting CPU and network performance, discover the investigation process behind identifying these issues, and understand effective mitigation strategies implemented to prevent service degradation. Gain valuable insights into real-world scenarios where seemingly unrelated activities can impact system performance and how to maintain service quality in complex multi-tenant architectures.
