Auto-telemetry with Pixie is a supported public beta. Therefore, the features and functionality are subject to change.

When we say auto-telemetry, we’re not talking about cars &mdash; we’re talking about automatically collecting telemetry data for your Kubernetes clusters. With our [Pixie](https://pixielabs.ai/) integration, you no longer have to manually instrument your clusters or change code. With one install command, you get observability into your Kubernetes clusters and workloads. No language agents required.

Pixie collects telemetry data using [eBPF](https://ebpf.io/), a virtual machine-like construct in the Linux kernel. eBPF makes it easy to collect similar data about your clusters and workloads as with traditional New Relic language agents, but now without needing to update your code.

Currently, Pixie performs best on clusters with up to 100 nodes (exceeding 100 nodes can lead to excessive memory usage and scripts failing to run). Friendly reminder: autoscaling can quickly drive up your node numbers.

[Auto-telemetry with Pixie](/docs/full-stack-observability/observe-everything/get-started/get-started-auto-telemetry-pixie/) pulls data from the Pixie Cloud API and sends it to the New Relic OpenTelemetry endpoint. You can build your own charts and [query](/docs/using-new-relic/data/understand-data/query-new-relic-data) your Auto-telemetry with Pixie data using the query builder and the NerdGraph API.
