Set up OBI

Set up OBI

There are different options to set up and run OBI:

• Set up OBI on Kubernetes
• Set up OBI on Kubernetes with Helm
• Set up OBI on Docker
• Set up OBI as a standalone process

For information on configuration options and data export modes, see the Configure OBI documentation.

You can run OBI as a standalone process. This approach is suitable for running with bare metal installations, in virtual machines, for local development, or advanced use cases. Consult the documentation in the Git repository to learn how to set up OBI as a standalone process.

Note: If you will be using OBI to generate traces, please make sure you’ve read our documentation section on configuring the Routes Decorator. Since OBI is auto-instrumenting your application without any modifications to your code, the service names and URLs that are automatically assigned might not be what you expect.
