Aspire already provides default configs for capturing open telemetry data. We now just need to gather the information and store it for later examination.

At work a colleague used it in his bachelor thesis and has some great instructions on how to set it up

Maybe a separate service should be used that takes incomming OTel data and stores it. Usually one configures an OTel endpoint where data gets sent too. If we can do this with Aspire service discovery thats fine. If not the separate service might be a good idea to have the OTel config in one place

OTel doesn't store or visualise any data, it is just the protocol/standard for gathering them.

The following tools should be used for storing and visualising the data:

Grafana (visualisation)
Grafana Loki for storing traces
Grafana Tempo for storing Logs
Prometheus or Grafana Mimir for storing metrics (not yet decided. Prometheus is the industry standard but Mimir is from Grafana like everything else from the list)
