+# Helidon OpenTelemetry SE Example
+
+This project implements a simple Hello World REST service using Helidon SE and using OpenTelemetry tracing prepared using Helidon configuration.
+
+## Download and start a telemetry back-end
+One easy way to see telemetry in action is to run a back-end server that can collect OpenTelemetry OTLP telemetry data and display it. This example Helidon service by default uses OpenTelemetry to transmit its data using OTLP.
+
+One option is to download the [Jaeger back-end](https://www.jaegertracing.io/download/), install it, and run it, but most modern backends support OTLP. Later steps in this example use Jaeger as an example back-end.
+
+## View the telemetry configuration
+Look at the `src/main/resources/application.yaml` file. It contains configuration for OpenTelemetry. Note these settings under `telemetry`:
+* `service` - Assigns the service name by which all telemetry from this application is identified. You will use this later when using the telemetry back-end UI to browse traces.
+* `tracing.attributes` - Declares settings applied to all traces transmitted to the back-end.
+* `processors` - Specifies a single span processor, `simple`, which emits each span as soon as it is ended. This makes sure that OpenTelemetry sends span data to the back-end as soon as possible. 
+
+**NOTE**: In production systems, you should use the default `batch` processor type (with its additional settings if you wish) for better network performance.
+
+## Build and run
+
+With JDK21
+```bash
+mvn package
+java -jar target/helidon-examples-telemetry-config.jar
+```
+
+## Exercise the application
+
+Basic:
+```
+curl -X GET http://localhost:8080/simple-greet
+Hello World!
+```
+
+
+JSON:
+```
+curl -X GET http://localhost:8080/greet
+{"message":"Hello World!"}
+
+curl -X GET http://localhost:8080/greet/Joe
+{"message":"Hello Joe!"}
+
+curl -X PUT -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"greeting" : "Hola"}' http://localhost:8080/greet/greeting
+
+curl -X GET http://localhost:8080/greet/Jose
+{"message":"Hola Jose!"}
+```
+
+## Use the telemetry back-end to view tracing information
+Use a browser to access the back-end UI and view the spans. For example, with Jaeger:
+1. Access `http://localhost:16686`.
+2. Expand the upper-left "Service" drop list and select "otel-config-example" and then click the "Find Traces" button. ![Service Selection](images/service-selection.png "Service Selection")
+
+   Recall that the configuration assigns "otel-config-example" as the `telemetry.service`, so that is the service name the back-end displays.
+3. The UI displays separate traces for each of the requests you made to the Helidon service.
+4. Click on one of the traces.
+5. The back-end shows two or more spans, depending on which trace you clicked. ![Example GET trace](images/get-trace.png "GET trace")
+6. Click on any of the spans. ![Example GET span](images/get-span.png "GET span") Note that the "Process" tags include values for `x` and `y` from the `attributes` settings in the `application.yaml` config file.
