# docker-otel-lgtm

[grafana/otel-lgtm](https://hub.docker.com/r/grafana/otel-lgtm) bundles Grafana's open source stack for OpenTelemetry monitoring in a single Docker image.
An OpenTelemetry backend in a Docker image.

![alt](img/overview.png)
![Components included in the Docker image: OpenTelemetry collector, Prometheus, Tempo, Loki, Grafana](img/overview.png)

## Intended Usage
The `grafana/otel-lgtm` Docker image is an open source backend for OpenTelemetry that’s intended for development, demo, and testing environments. If you are looking for a production-ready, out-of-the box solution to monitor applications and minimize MTTR (mean time to resolution) with OpenTelemetry and Prometheus, you should try [Grafana Cloud Application Observability](https://grafana.com/products/cloud/application-observability/).

The intended usage is:
## Documentation

* Quick way to try OSS Grafana with OpenTelemetry.
* Demos, presentations.
* Integration tests for OpenTelemetry instrumentation: Run automated queries against the databases to check if expected metrics/traces/logs are present.

The Docker image is not intended for production monitoring.
