Pattern #1 - Basic

This pattern features a scenario where clients are instrumented using OTLP, sending data to a cluster of collectors configured with a file similiar to config.yaml from this repository. To get this scenario working, you’ll need to have a Jaeger instance running.

If you don’t have a client readily available, you can use the "tracegen" utility to generate traces.

A variant of this pattern includes a fanout, sending data to multiple exporters.
