Building a Complete Grafana LGTM Observability Platform with Docker Compose
What is LGTM?
LGTM stands for Loki, Grafana, Tempo, and Metrics (usually Prometheus). It’s an open-source toolkit for monitoring your applications and infrastructure.
Think of it as a control center where you can:
- See all your logs in one place (Loki)
- View beautiful dashboards of your system’s performance (Grafana)
- Track requests as they move through your system (Tempo)
- Monitor key metrics like CPU, memory usage, and more (Prometheus)
