Im currently using a grafana stack (grafana, loki, tempo). All open source and they can store the data in the file system, which means I don’t have to deploy another db. The only problem is that tempo is a huge memory hog.

I think an article is a wonderful idea. The logs aren’t going to be exported via the otel pipeline. For getting them into loki you’ll need to use promtail. How you set it up is going to be dependent how you’re deploying your application.
