Real-time Telemetry Example

This example demonstrates running a real-time telemetry pipeline.

1. Activate tracing by setting environment variables as described in the telemetry configuration.

2. Start services and generate traces:

   • Go to the real-time telemetry example folder.

   • Start dataClay and OpenTelemetry Collector services:

     docker compose up
     

   • Run the dataClay client:

     python3 client.py
     

   • The traces are streamed in real-time to the OpenTelemetry Collector.

3. Visualize in Grafana:

   • Access Grafana at <http://localhost:3000> (default username/password: admin/admin).

   • In the Explore section, select Tempo as the data source to query traces. You can also view interactions in the Service Graph section.
