Artavazd Balaian

Worked on the grafana/opentelemetry-ebpf-instrumentation repository to deliver HotSpot JVM memory metrics integration, enabling collection of heap summary and memory pool GC metrics through GCTracer uprobes and USDT probes. Leveraged Go programming and eBPF to unify Go and JVM runtime metrics via a shared event-driven architecture, reducing duplication and improving exporter integration. Enhanced reliability by stabilizing USDT metrics against kernel verifier constraints and cleaning up IP-map keys to prevent stale mappings. Updated BPF map and header organization for maintainability, improved cross-architecture compatibility, and strengthened CI/test automation, resulting in a more robust and extensible backend performance monitoring pipeline.
