Intro to Calico Observability

If you've ever tried to debug why one pod can't reach another in Kubernetes, you know the drill — kubectl, logs, maybe a packet capture. Network visibility in Kubernetes has historically meant piecing things together from multiple sources. In this 10-minute talk, Dillon introduces Whisker, Calico's network observability interface for Kubernetes. He'll cover what Whisker actually shows you, how it surfaces flow data from your cluster, and where it fits for platform teams trying to answer the everyday questions: what's talking to what, what got blocked, and why. Pitched to be accessible for anyone working with Kubernetes, whether you're already a Calico user or just curious about what modern network observability looks like in a cloud-native environment.
