Traces

1. Trace Ingestion #

Ingestion via OTLP or third-party protocols (Jaeger, Zipkin).

Receiving telemetry #

Grafana Alloy integrates the capabilities of the OpenTelemetry Collector. By using the otelcol.receiver.otlp component, Alloy can listen on standard gRPC and HTTP ports to receive spans sent by your instrumented applications. It is also capable of receiving traces from legacy systems using Jaeger or Zipkin protocols, thus centralizing all trace collection.
