Learning objectives

  • Master the installation and configuration of Grafana Tempo for professional environments
  • Develop skills in instrumenting traces with OpenTelemetry
  • Analyze distributed traces to quickly diagnose incidents in enterprise settings
  • Integrate Grafana Tempo with Loki and Prometheus for complete observability
  • Optimize Tempo performance in scalable production environments
  • Implement certified dashboards to monitor critical applications

The Learni story

Founded by engineers and learning experts, Learni's mission is to make high-impact tech training accessible to teams everywhere. We work remotely with organizations across the US and Canada, in your time zone, to help teams upskill fast.

Don't let this gap widen

Why this program matters

  • Without this upskilling, your team accumulates a technological gap that translates directly into productivity loss.

  • Organizations that don't train their talents on key topics see their competitiveness drop.

  • Every quarter without training is a gap widening with competitors who invest.

  • The cost of inaction quickly exceeds that of well-targeted training.

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.

Module 4Grafana Tempo Integrations: Coupling with Loki Logs and Prometheus Metrics (Unified Dashboards)

Seamless connection of Tempo to Loki to correlate traces and logs, integration with Prometheus for enriched metrics, creation of unified Grafana dashboards showing traces, logs, and metrics at a glance, practical workshops on a simulated Kubernetes cluster with Jaeger migration to Tempo, configuration of alerts based on anomalous traces, and end-to-end tests for full-stack enterprise observability.

Module 5Advanced Grafana Tempo: Scaling, Optimization, and Production Deployments (HA, Queriers)

High-availability deployment of Tempo in microservices mode on Kubernetes with automatic scaling of queriers and ingesters, performance tuning to ingest millions of spans per second, storage cost optimization via compaction and retention policies, case studies on major incidents resolved by Tempo, final project with certified dashboard deliverable, and action plan for secure production integration.

Evaluation method

  • Multiple-choice quiz to validate learning outcomes at the end of the training
  • Continuous assessment through practical exercises on a red-thread project
  • Presentation of a personalized Grafana Tempo dashboard to the trainer

Learning method

  • Courses led by an active SRE expert trainer
  • Practical exercises on real enterprise cases with Kubernetes clusters
  • Progressive red-thread project for an observable application
  • Complete course materials and OpenTelemetry resources provided to each participant

Methods, materials and delivery

The Training Grafana Tempo - Mastering Distributed Tracing program is delivered onsite or remote (blended-learning, virtual classroom, remote presence). At Learni, an industry-certified training organization, every program is built to maximize skills acquisition regardless of the chosen format.

The trainer alternates between demonstrative, interrogative and active methods (through hands-on labs and/or scenarios). This pedagogical approach guarantees concrete learning that's immediately applicable at work.

Equipment required

For the smooth delivery of the Training Grafana Tempo - Mastering Distributed Tracing program, the following equipment is required:

  • Mac or PC computers, high-speed fiber internet, whiteboard or flipchart, projector or interactive touch screen (for remote sessions)
  • Training environments installed on workstations or accessible online
  • Course materials, hands-on exercises and complementary resources
  • Post-training access to materials and educational resources

For intra-company training on a site outside Learni, the client commits to providing all required teaching materials (computers, internet, etc.) for the smooth delivery of the program in line with the prerequisites in the communicated program.

Skills assessment methods

Assessment of skills acquired during the Training Grafana Tempo - Mastering Distributed Tracing program is performed through:

  • During training: case studies, hands-on labs and professional scenarios
  • 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.

Step 1

Rigorous trainer selection

Each trainer is validated on three criteria: hands-on field expertise, proven pedagogy and alignment with your industry.

  • Triple validation: technical, pedagogical, sectoral.
  • Minimum rating 4.8/5 over the last 12 sessions.
Step 2

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.
Step 3

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.
Step 4

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.
