FAQ

  1. Where is the data?

The data is currently stored in the respective containers.

  1. How can I reset the state?

You can uninstall and re-install the extension.

  1. How to ingest data?

This PoC is optimized for OpenTelemetry ingress via OTLP. This means you should be able to ingest data by setting OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT on the observed and instrumented process.

The value of OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT would be depending on your network setup, but in essence, you point it to your local docker host.

Format is as follows: OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT=host.docker.internal:4317
