Matteo Franzil is a PhD Student in Information Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Trento, with a grant funded by Fondazione Bruno Kessler. His research lies at the intersection of cloud-native systems, network observability, and security, with a focus on scalable monitoring for cloud-to-edge environments.

His recent work studies how to make cloud and edge infrastructures more observable, secure, and easier to manage, with particular interest in Kubernetes, eBPF-based monitoring, context-aware audit analysis, and AI-assisted infrastructure workflows. In parallel, he teaches operating systems, cloud computing, databases, programming, and probability courses at the University of Trento, and contributes to European research projects on cost- and energy-aware infrastructures.

In addition to his academic activities, Matteo is an avid photographer and traveler. He enjoys exploring new places and capturing moments through his camera lens. His photography mainly focuses on landscapes, nature, and street photography, often during his hikes and trips.
