Don't let this gap widen
Why this program matters
Without Grafana Tempo, DevOps teams lose an average of 50% of their time debugging distributed incidents, with outages costing up to 100 000€ per hour in e-commerce.
68% of cloud-native outages stem from missing traces, according to CNCF, resulting in revenue losses and eroded customer trust.
Companies without advanced observability see their SLAs fall below 99%, risking contractual penalties and major competitive disadvantage.
Master Tempo now to avoid these costly traps.
Program
Module 1Grafana Tempo Fundamentals: Installation and Initial Configuration (Docker, Helm, Storage)
In-depth discovery of Grafana Tempo through quick installation with Docker Compose and Helm on Kubernetes, configuration of storage backends such as S3 or MinIO, first sends of simulated traces from a Node.js application, practical exercises to validate connectivity, creation of a realistic test environment with instrumented trace generation, and initial diagnosis of system health metrics.
Module 2Grafana Tempo Instrumentation: Generating Traces with OpenTelemetry (SDKs Java, Python, JS)
Hands-on with OpenTelemetry SDKs to instrument microservices applications in Java, Python, and JavaScript, adding custom spans and distributed contexts, configuring exporters to Tempo, exercises on a red-thread e-commerce project with traces propagated via HTTP and gRPC, validation of received traces in the Tempo interface, and optimization of attributes for efficient searching.
Module 3Grafana Tempo Analysis: Advanced Queries and Trace Exploration (Query Language, Service Graph)
Interactive exploration of traces via the Grafana interface with TraceQL queries, filtering by tags, latency, and errors, building service graphs to visualize dependencies, practical cases on debugging real incidents like slow queries or memory leaks, collaborative exercises for root cause analysis, and exporting reports for ops teams, enhancing immediate diagnostic skills.

- End of training: self-assessment questionnaire and skills evaluation by the trainer
- After training: completion certificate detailing acquired skills
Program accessibility
Learni is committed to making its programs accessible. All our programs are accessible to people with disabilities. Our teams are available to adapt the pedagogical methods to your specific needs. Please contact us for any adjustment request.
Enrollment terms and lead times
Registration is possible up to 48 business hours before the start of training. All our programs are built for corporate L&D budgets and delivered onsite or remotely.
Our method
Training quality, guaranteed at every step
Before, during, after: we frame the brief, introduce the trainer, tailor the content and measure impact. You stay in control from kickoff to wrap-up.
You meet the trainer beforehand
30-minute video call between you and the selected trainer to validate the fit, adjust content and clear any final doubts.
- Live briefing on goals and team context.
- Veto right — we swap the trainer for free if needed.
Content tailored to your context
No recycled slides. The syllabus is reworked from your real cases: tools, constraints, vocabulary, ongoing projects.
- Hands-on cases drawn from your stack and projects.
- Program co-written then validated by your team.
Continuous quality follow-up
Live evaluations, 30/90/180-day check-ins and a consolidation plan. If the impact misses the mark, we rework it.
- NPS, knowledge quizzes and skills self-assessment.
- Satisfaction guarantee: fully satisfied or free rework.
A simple promise: you don't pay to discover the trainer on day one. Everything is validated upfront, by you.
