![DTrace since 2012: Core
Added new ways of representing aggregated data via agghist,
aggpack, and aggzoom options
Added new json() subroutine
Added DTrace userland CTF support
Added the new (on-by-default!) temporal option
Added print() support for translated types
Added support for fds[], curpsinfo, sched and proc providers

dtrace.conf(16): DTrace state of the union
- 2. dtrace.conf(16) Quadrennial (!) DTrace unconference started in 2008 ~100 attendees from: ~45 companies ~1 VC Entrepreneur-in-Residence Twitter: #dtraceconf Thanks to our sponsors, Joyent and the FIPP! Huge thanks to Ryan Wilson, Brittany Berry and Jenny Miller from Joyent

- 10. DTrace since 2012: Platforms FreeBSD implemented the pid provider in 9.0 and, as of 9.2, enabled DTrace by default! NetBSD added DTrace support including support for ARM! Linux port of DTrace largely completed by Oracle but keeping the user-level portion proprietary has limited its impact
- 11. DTrace in 2016 and beyond Distributed systems are ubiquitous and tracing in distributed systems has improved tremendously; how can DTrace help? Instrumenting multi-processes applications via the pid provider is still painful; can we improve? The rise (resurrection?) of statically compiled languages like Go and Rust presents new opportunity and new challenges DTrace and serverless computing? User-level postmortem tracing? Anti-roadmap: Dynamic translators?
