+# OpenTelemetry
+
+This example shows how to configure OpenTelemetry on a client and server, and shows
+what type of telemetry data it can produce for certain RPC's.
+
+## Try it
+
+```
+go run server/main.go
+```
+
+```
+go run client/main.go
+```
+
+```
+curl localhost:9464/metrics
+curl localhost:9465/metrics
+```
+
+## Explanation
+
+The client continuously makes RPC's to a server. The client and server both
+expose a prometheus exporter to listen and provide metrics. This defaults to
+:9464 for the server and :9465 for the client.
+
+OpenTelemetry is configured on both the client and the server, and exports to
+the Prometheus exporter. The exporter exposes metrics on the Prometheus ports
+described above.
+
+Curling to the exposed Prometheus ports outputs the metrics recorded on the
+client and server.
