+# OpenTelemetry Metrics
+
+[OpenTelemetry](https://opentelemetry.io/) is an open-source observability framework designed to generate, collect, and manage telemetry data (metrics, traces, and logs) in distributed systems. It provides a standardized way to instrument, generate, collect, and export telemetry data for analysis, making it easier to monitor and troubleshoot complex distributed applications.
+
+## Integration with Zilliqa
+
+A Zilliqa node contains various performance and operational metrics compatible with the OpenTelemetry protocol specification. These metrics are useful for:
+
+- Monitoring node performance and health
+- Understanding system behavior under different conditions
+- Enabling proactive maintenance and troubleshooting
+
+To export the OpenTelemetry metrics, you can define the collector endpoint with the `--otlp-endpoint` parameter in `z2 join`:
+
+```bash
+z2 join --chain zq2-prototestnet --otlp-endpoint=http://localhost:4317
+```
+
+This integration demonstrates Zilliqa's commitment to providing robust monitoring capabilities that align with modern observability practices, enabling operators to maintain healthy and efficient network nodes.
+
+## Local Testing
+
+For local testing of the OpenTelemetry stack with the Zilliqa nodes, you can use the provided Docker Compose project in the `infra/opentelemetry` folder of the [zq2 repository](https://github.com/Zilliqa/zq2), and run:
+
+```bash
+docker-compose up -d
+```
+
+This will deploy a Zilliqa environment with the complete OpenTelemetry toolset and once deployed, the metrics can be visualized through Grafana at [http://localhost:9010](http://localhost:9010).
