# Parca Agent

Parca Agent is an always-on sampling profiler that uses eBPF to capture raw profiling data with very low overhead. It observes user-space and kernel-space stacktraces [19 times per second](docs/design.md#cpu-sampling-frequency) and builds [pprof](https://github.com/google/pprof) formatted profiles from the extracted data. Read more details in the [design documentation](docs/design.md).

The collected data can be viewed locally via HTTP endpoints and then be configured to be sent to a [Parca](https://github.com/parca-dev/parca) server to be queried and analyzed over time.
