5 minutes  

The Spring PetClinic Java application is a simple microservices application that consists of a frontend and backend services. The frontend service is a Spring Boot application that serves a web interface to interact with the backend services. The backend services are Spring Boot applications that serve RESTful API’s to interact with a MySQL database.

By the end of this workshop, you will have a better understanding of how to enable automatic discovery and configuration for your Java-based applications running in Kubernetes.

The diagram below details the architecture of the Spring PetClinic Java application running in Kubernetes with the Splunk OpenTelemetry Operator and automatic discovery and configuration enabled.
